The bacon will cook along with the chicken in the slow cooker. But if you cook the bacon just a little before assembling the dish, you will end up with less bacon fat in the final product. I'm thinking just a quick zap in the microwave then drain the fat.
This dish sounds delicious and I am definitely going to try it. I bet it would be good with chicken legs.
