I love fried food. I also love bacon. So the combination of fried and bacon intrigued me. So today I created a recipe for chicken fried bacon with gravy. Yep, it wasn’t unhealthy enough.

So amazing, it is worth a heart attack or two.

Chicken fried bacon was probably the most glorious thing that I have ever eaten.

Chicken Fried Bacon

1 lb thick sliced bacon
1/2 cup plus 3tbs flour
3/4 cup cream
2 eggs
4 tbs butter
20-30 saltines
salt and pepper
hot sauce
1 cup chicken broth
1 tbs worcestershire sauce

Frying the Bacon

I tried to make these with raw bacon and with partially cooked bacon. I found that partially cooked bacon worked the best. Since I wanted the bacon perfectly flat I used the microwave to partially cook the bacon. Place 4-6 strips of bacon on a paper towel lined plate. Then top with a nother piece of paper towel. Place in the microwave and cook on high for 3 minutes, remove and let cool.

Next dredge the cooled bacon in seasoned flour.

Then dredge it in an egg wash. To make the egg wash, mix two eggs with a 1/4 cup cream and a couple dashes of hot sauce.

Now dredge the egg covered bacon in crushed saltine crackers.

Place into a medium/high heat heavy bottom pan that is coated with vegetable oil.

Fry for about 2-4 minutes on each side. Cook until the bacon is golden brown on each side. Remove from the pan and let drain on a paper towel.

Making the Gravy

To make the gravy melt 4tbs of butter in a pan and whisk in 3tbs of flour. Cook until the flour turns slighly brown.

Then add 1cup of chicken broth, 1/2 cup of cream, 1 tbs of worcestershire, a dash of hot sauce and salt and pepper.

Heat until boiling and then reduce. Stirring frequently. Once it starts to thicken, remove from the heat and let sit for a couple of minutes.

Serve the chicken fried bacon with the gravy for a heart stopping meal that is amazing.

The Perfect Meal

Cooked golden brown until the bacon is crispy and delicious

This was the greatest appetizer/meal that I have ever had. The chicken fried bacon with the gravy is unbelievably good. There is nothing like dipping fried fat into more fat.
