One Pan Bacon Chicken Pasta
Serves 1
Directions
- 1Grab a pound of bacon and chop it up.
- 2Add the chopped bacon to a large skillet and cook it on medium heat.
- 3Add one and a half pounds of cubed chicken to a large bowl and season it well.
- 4Toss the chicken with a few tablespoons of corn starch.
- 5While the bacon is cooking, shred a block of cheese, using about half or a little more.
- 6Once the bacon is almost cooked through, add half a diced onion to the skillet.
- 7Once the onion is translucent and the bacon is done, remove them from the pan and drain on paper towels, leaving the bacon grease in the pan.
- 8Cook the chicken in the bacon grease for about three minutes on both sides, then toss for 30 seconds until crispy.
- 9Remove the chicken from the pan.
- 10To the same pan, add a whole carton of chicken broth and one pound of pasta.
- 11Set the heat to medium-high and cook for 8 to 9 minutes once it starts boiling, until the chicken broth is absorbed and noodles are cooked.
- 12Lower the heat and add one cup of heavy cream (or half and half).
- 13Add about a cup of shredded cheese, stir, then add another cup, allowing it to melt quickly.
- 14Add the cooked bacon and onion, and the chicken to the pan.
- 15Mix everything together.
