Instructions
Turn on your oven to 350F.
Mix everything except the bacon and scallions together until you get a nice, homogenous mixture.
Put the mixture into a greased baking pan. I used an
8 inch cast iron pan.
Cut each slice of bacon into 3-4 pieces.
Lay the pieces of bacon on top of the casserole in a circle.
Bake for 30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the chicken is cooked through.
Scatter with fresh scallions and serve.
The casserole is very rich so I'd plan to serve it as a side dish or appetizer rather than a main course.
