I've been making this recipe for about 30 years, and it's still my husband's favorite chicken dinner. In place of the bacon, I'll often substitute country-smoked ham.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add more vegetables to the gravy.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the chicken didn't come out as crispy as I would have liked. I think I'll try frying the chicken instead of baking it next time.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try it again with less salt next time.
