Smothered Chicken Breasts

1 lb chicken breasts, halved
1/4 tsp seasoned salt
1/4 tsp lemon pepper seasoning
8 bacon strips
1 c sliced onion
2 TBS brown sugar
½ c shredded Colby Jack cheese

Preheat oven to 375F. Sprinkle chicken with salt and lemon pepper, and once oven is preheated bake for 20-25 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large skillet cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove to paper towels and reserve 2 TBS of the drippings. In the drippings, sauté the onion and brown sugar until onion is golden. Once the bacon is cool enough to handle break each piece in half. When the chicken is cooked through: take out of the oven, place two halves of bacon on each chicken breast, and top with caramelized onions and cheese.
