    Add chicken, skin side up, back to the skillet along with the cooked bacon. Place skillet in oven and cook chicken to and internal temperature of 165°F. After 15 minutes baste the chicken with the skillet sauce. At the 25 minute mark check the temperature of the chicken. It should be done. When chicken is done, if the skin is not crispy change the oven to broil and crisp up the skin. Remove chicken from the oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes.
