- 2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp. butter
Instructions
- Cut the chicken into 8 pieces, and season with salt and pepper.
- Place a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, then fry the bacon until it’s crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan, and reserve it.

- Serve the chicken with the sauce spooned over the top.
- Enjoy!

Notes
The chicken should be cooked until it is tender enough to allow the meat to fall off the bone. Give enough time for the chicken to braise in the wine sauce, as this is what imparts the rich flavors to the dish.
