Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 slices bacon
¾ pound chicken breasts, diced
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 medium shallot, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups water
1 cup whole milk
4 cups elbow macaroni
1 tablespoon ranch dressing mix
3 cups broccoli florets
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese
¼ cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Heat bacon in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Cook, flipping occasionally until browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
  • Sprinkle chicken evenly with salt and pepper; cook in hot bacon drippings over medium-high heat, stirring often, until chicken is golden brown on all sides, about 4 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate and set aside. Chicken will not be fully cooked at this point.
  • Add shallot and garlic to drippings and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 2 minutes. Stir in water and milk; use a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from bottom of the Dutch oven. Stir in pasta and ranch dressing mix. Bring to a boil and simmer for 6 minutes.
  • Return chicken to the Dutch oven and add broccoli. Cook until pasta is tender and chicken is cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in Cheddar cheese and sour cream to combine. Crumble cooked bacon over the top and serve hot.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
1 onion, finely chopped
1 large garlic clove, finely grated
200ml double cream

Steps:

  • Heat the oil and butter in a medium saucepan over a low heat and fry the onion for 10 mins, or until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 2 mins more. Add the cream, mascarpone, parmesan and stock cube. Give it a stir and add the cooked chicken and bacon to heat through.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your chicken spaghetti with bacon even more delicious. Look for organic, free-range chicken, and thick-cut, smoky bacon.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken and bacon, make sure to give them enough space so that they can brown properly. Otherwise, they will steam instead of fry, and you'll end up with soggy meat.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: Al dente pasta has a slightly firm bite to it, which is the perfect texture for chicken spaghetti. If you cook the pasta too long, it will become mushy and ruin the dish.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what brings all the flavors of chicken spaghetti together. Use a sauce that is rich and flavorful, such as a tomato-based sauce or a creamy Alfredo sauce.
  • Don't forget the cheese: Cheese is a must-have for chicken spaghetti. It adds a delicious richness and creaminess to the dish. Use a good quality, sharp cheddar cheese or a blend of cheeses.

Conclusion:

Chicken spaghetti with bacon is a delicious, hearty, and comforting dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal that is sure to please everyone, give chicken spaghetti with bacon a try!
