- Cook bacon until crispy, crumble, and set aside.
2. Cook the Chicken and Make the Sauce

- In a separate skillet, melt butter and sauté onions for 2–3 minutes until soft and translucent.
- Add flour to the onions and cook for another 2–3 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Slowly pour in milk and heavy cream, stirring until the sauce thickens.

- Spray a heavy-bottom or cast iron skillet with cooking spray.
- Layer sliced potatoes across the bottom, slightly overlapping.
- Add a layer of cooked chicken and crumbled bacon.
- Sprinkle a layer of shredded cheese.
- Pour a layer of the creamy sauce over the cheese.
- Repeat the layers until the skillet is full, ending with a generous layer of cheese on top.
4. Bake
- Cover the skillet with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
- Remove foil and bake uncovered until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
5. Final Touch
- Let rest for 20–30 minutes before cutting to allow the casserole to set.
