Chicken Bake with Sweet Bacon Dressing

This chicken and vegetable dish is a little spicy. Despite the bacon fat in the recipe, it is not greasy, with most of the fat remaining in the dish and just the flavor moving to your plate.

Sweet Bacon Dressing

5 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled. (save drippings)

vegetable oil
2/3 cup balsamic or red wine vinegar
2 1/2 tbsp. brown sugar
1 teas. salt
1/2 teas. ground red pepper
1 clove garlic crushed
Add enough oil to bacon drippings to make 1/4 cup. Add remaining ingredients and whisk or shake well in jar. It may be necessary to heat slightly in microwave to separate bacon fat.
We enjoyed sliced tomatoes as an accompaniment to this one-dish supper.

The clean, cold tomatoes are a good contrast to the hot, spicy chicken.
