CHICKEN ALFREDO WITH CRISPY BACON (PAULA DEEN)



Chicken Alfredo With Crispy Bacon (Paula Deen) image

A recipe that I thought sounded delicious from Paula Deen's Comfort Food Magazine. Posting for safe keeping. Update 10/17/2013: Made this for DH and myself, so I made 1/3 of the recipe, but still made 2 pieces of bacon (will even make more next time) and I added some additional heavy cream as we like it creamy. We loved the addition of the bacon, onion and garlic to the normal Chicken Alfredo, DH even went back for seconds.

BACON CHICKEN ALFREDO



Bacon Chicken Alfredo image

"I had a rich pasta dish similar to this at a restaurant," recalls Dana Simmons of Lancaster, Ohio. " It was so unique that i tried to duplicate it at home a few days later. This is remarkably close, but not as fussy because it uses ready-made ingredients rather than being made from scratch."

SWEET CHICKEN BACON WRAPS (PAULA DEEN)



Sweet Chicken Bacon Wraps (Paula Deen) image

Hey you Paula Deen fans, she has a new magazine, "Cooking with Paula Deen"--this recipe is from the premier issue. It was so yummy looking, I couldn't wait to try it. I added another 15 minutes to the cooking time suggested (30-35 minutes) and It was just right, but oven temperatures vary, so check on it during the last few minutes of cooking time. I'm also going to add a few dashes of cayenne pepper next time for something hot and sweet!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your Chicken Alfredo. Use organic chicken breasts, high-quality Parmesan cheese, and fresh herbs like basil, oregano, and thyme.
  • Cook the chicken properly: To ensure that the chicken is juicy and tender, cook it over medium heat until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Do not overcook the chicken, as this will make it dry and tough.
  • Make your own Alfredo sauce: While you can use store-bought Alfredo sauce, it's easy to make your own at home with just a few simple ingredients. This way, you can control the flavor and consistency of the sauce.
  • Don't skimp on the bacon: The crispy bacon adds a delicious smoky flavor to the Chicken Alfredo. Use thick-cut bacon for the best results.
  • Serve immediately: Chicken Alfredo is best served immediately after it's made. The sauce will thicken as it cools, so if you need to make it ahead of time, reheat it gently over low heat until it's warmed through.
