Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ pound penne pasta
6 ounces bacon, chopped
½ pound boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
½ teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon cantanzaro herbs (from Savory Spice Shop®)
¼ cup butter
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
½ cup grated fontina cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup provolone cheese
1 ¾ ounces chopped sun-dried tomatoes

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and desired crispness is reached, 6 to 10 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels.
  • Add chopped chicken thighs, garlic salt, and cantanzaro herbs to skillet and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 6 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken to a plate.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat until a pinch of flour sprinkled into the oil just begins to bubble. Whisk in flour to form a thick paste the consistency of cake frosting. Slowly add in milk, stirring constantly. Allow mixture to thicken, while stirring. Mix in fontina cheese, Parmesan, provolone, and sun-dried tomatoes. Stir to combine. Add drained pasta to sauce and mix well. Stir in cooked chicken and bacon.
