Instructions
Heat the oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
Place into the skillet skin side down. Cook without moving the chicken for 7-8 minutes until the skin gets browned and crisp.
Flip the chicken and add the bacon between the pieces of chicken.
Cook until the chicken reaches 160 on an internal thermometer and the bacon is crisp.
If the bacon crisps before the chicken is done simply place the pieces on top of the chicken.
