Recipes For Chicken And Bacon Pasta

Instructions

1. Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set it aside, leaving the bacon grease in the pan.

3. In the same skillet, add the diced chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink and slightly browned.

4. Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.

5. Toss in the cherry tomatoes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.

6. Pour in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.

7. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, along with the spinach leaves and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir everything together until the cheese is melted and the spinach is wilted.

8. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

9. Serve the Chicken and Bacon Pasta hot, garnished with crispy bacon bits and fresh parsley.
