CHICKEN SPAGHETTI WITH WHITE SAUCE
This cheesy white sauce is perfect for any pasta but works best with spaghetti or cavatappi. I favor butcher bacon as it's the best bacon on the planet! Kids attacked the leftover pasta and ate the bacon and sun-dried tomatoes before I was able to get a photo!

- While pasta is cooking, coat chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for ripe peppers, juicy tomatoes, and savory chicken sausage.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken sausage and peppers, be sure to give them enough room to brown properly. If you overcrowd the pan, the ingredients will steam instead of sear, resulting in a less flavorful dish.
- Cook the sauce until it has thickened: The sauce should be slightly thickened and flavorful. If it's too thin, continue to simmer it over low heat until it reaches the desired consistency.
- Season to taste: Be sure to taste the sauce and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes depending on your personal preference.
- Serve immediately: This dish is best served hot, so be sure to time the cooking of the pasta and sauce so that they are both ready at the same time.
