  1. 1

    Cook the bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat, stirring now and then, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, and keep the drippings in the skillet.

  2. 2

    Add the chicken thighs to the skillet and cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Add the shallots, thyme, rosemary, and garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Sprinkle the bacon over the chicken mixture, then add the wine. Simmer until the wine reduces slightly, 1 to 2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the mushrooms and enough chicken stock to almost cover the chicken. Cover the skillet and simmer for 35 minutes.

  5. 5

    Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning. Simmer until the chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near but not touching the bone should register at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

  6. 6

    Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat; stir in the flour and cook until a thick paste forms, about 1 minute. Whisk the paste into the skillet until the sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
