Your taste buds will thank you!
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over high; once it’s hot, add the chicken. Sear for 2 minutes, until golden, then flip over and cook for 2 minutes more. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the onion, garlic, bacon and saute for about 3 minutes, until the onion softens.
Add the broth, white wine and coconut cream, carrots and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, until the sauce reduces a bit.
Return chicken to the pan, spoon some of the sauce over the top of the chicken and transfer to the preheated oven. Roast for about 30 minutes, until the sauce is reduced and creamy and the chicken is cooked through.
Sprinkle with parmesan and fresh thyme and serve hot.
