Smothered Chicken Breasts - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 (6 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breast halves
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
    1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    8 slices bacon
    1 medium onion, sliced
    1/4 cup packed brown sugar
    1/2 cup shredded colby-monterey jack cheese
Preparation
    Sprinkle chicken with salt and lemon-pepper. In a large skillet, cook chicken in oil for 13-15 minutes or until juices run clear; remove and keep warm.
    In the same skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, remove to paper towels; drain, reserving 2 tablespoons drippings. In the drippings, saute the onion and brown sugar until onion is golden. Place two bacon strips on each chicken breast half; top with caramelized onions and cheese.
