- 6 Slices Bacon, Diced
- 2 Pounds Chicken Thighs, Bone in and skin on

- When the butter is melted, add the flour coated chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside.
- Add the remaining butter to the pan and allow it to melt.
- Sprinkle one cup of the remaining seasoned flour to the pan and whisk for 1 minute until the butter and flour are well combined.
- Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk until gravy is smooth.
- Return the cooked chicken and bacon to the pan.
- Bring the mixture to a boil then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
