Bacon Chicken Breasts

6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
6 slices of bacon
1 c sour cream
1 can of condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 can of mushrooms

Take your chicken and wrap a slice of bacon around it, place the seam side down in a 9x 13 cake pan or in a crock pot.  Do this for all the chicken breasts.  Combine all the rest of the ingredients, using enough onion salt for your taste.  Pour this over the chicken.  Bake in 325 oven for an hour or in crockpot on low for 6-8 hours.

Tarragon
Garlic Powder
Parsley
Salt and Pepper
Butter

In a frying pan melt the butter.  Then place the chicken in there and sprinkle the various seasonings over it.  Remember to be careful with the tarragon, it can be a very strong flavor to some people.

If you are looking to increase the flavor of your chicken without much effort then there are some simple tips that you can follow.  First always use butter or extra-virgin olive oil.  A lot of people use margarine or a cheap veggie oil, and the problem is that these oils flavorless.  If you want something to be full of flavor then you need to use products that have flavor.

Also if a recipes calls for onions then use fresh onions.  Dried onions, have had all of the oil dehydrated out of them, this oil is what makes the onion flavorful.

The last thing is to use garlic.  Chicken and garlic compliment each other very well and you can turn some simple chicken into garlic chicken within 2 seconds.
