CHICKEN AND BACON PASTA WITH SPINACH AND TOMATOES IN GARLIC CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet, on medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook on one side on medium-high heat for 4 minutes. While it cooks, sprinkle the uncooked sides of the chicken with paprika, Italian seasoning, and salt. Flip the chicken over, and cook on the other side for 3 more minutes on medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low-medium, flip chicken over again and cook, covered, for several minutes until no longer pink in the center. Remove chicken from the pan and keep chicken warm.
• To the same pan (but without chicken), add heavy cream and bring to boil. Only after the heavy cream starts boiling, add shredded Parmesan cheese. Immediately reduce to simmer (low-medium heat) and stir, while simmering, until the cheese melts and the sauce is creamy, for about 1 or 3 minutes.
• To the same pan with the creamy sauce, add chopped tomatoes, fresh spinach, garlic, crushed red pepper. Stir in the sauce on medium heat just until the spinach starts to wilt and sinks into the sauce. Add 1/3 of the cooked chicken (sliced into small strips) and half the bacon (already cooked and drained of fat). Mix everything. Remove from heat.
• In the meantime bring a large pot of water to boil, add pasta, and cook according to instructions (usually 10 to 15 minutes). Drain the pasta.
• Add cooked pasta to the skillet with the sauce and reheat on low heat. When ready to serve, top the pasta with the remaining half of bacon (cooked, drained of fat, chopped, gently reheated) and the remaining 2/3 of the cooked chicken (sliced into small strips, gently reheated). This is done for presentation purposes.
• When serving, top the pasta with 1/2 cup of shredded Parmesan cheese.

CHICKEN & BACON WITH PENNE IN CREAMY GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Combine ingredients for marinate in a ziploc bag or marinate container; add boneless chicken breast. Make sure chicken is coated well. Refrigerate over night or at least a couple of hours prior to grilling. You can grill the chicken outside over charcoal, on a gas grill or in a cast iron stove top grill. For this recipe I used my cast iron stove top grill.
• 2. Put water on stove to boil for pasta; add salt. Once water boils add pasta and cook according to directions on package.
• 3. Fry bacon. I cut up the bacon before frying.
• 4. Cut cream cheese up into small piece. Combine cream cheese and heavy cream in a small pan, simmer over low heat, stirring occassionally until cream cheese has melted.
• 5. Heat grill over medium high heat. Once good and hot, drain marinate off chicken and add chicken to hot grill, reduce heat to medium. Cook 5 to 7 minutes on each side or until chicken is done with no pink showing.
• 6. Once chicken is done, remove from pan and slice into bite size pieces. Return to pan, cover and keep warm over a low heat until ready to add to pasta.
• 7. Once cream cheese has melted; whisk in parmesan cheese, egg yolks, chives, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. NOTE: Don't worry about the raw egg yolk, it will cook in between this warm mixture and the hot pasta.
• 8. When pasta is done, drain reserving 1/2 cup of the hot liquid. Return pasta to pot and immediately add cream cheese mixture. Add some of the reserved water to loosen the sauce. Add chicken and bacon, toss to combine. Sprinkle top with some dried chives or fresh parsley and serve with a green salad and a roll. NOTE: if you feel you have too much chicken, store some in ziploc bag in the fridge to use in a salad for another day.
• 9. NOTE: I had four pots and pans on the stove all at one time. This dish goes fast once it gets going. I started heating the cast iron grill first and then I started my water for pasta, started melting the cream cheese in the heavy cream, started frying the bacon and added chicken to hot stove top grill. It seemed to all come together nicely in the end.

DELICIOUS CHICKEN AND BACON WITH PENNE PASTA IN CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Put chicken in pot with water and bay leaves. I used about 1 tablespoon of chopped dried bay leaves. Boil the chicken until done. I boil it low so it doesn't get tough and infuses the flavor of the dried bay leaves.
• Meanwhile, fried the bacon low. When almost done, put 1 tablespoon of garlic in with it and about 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder. Take bacon and garlic up when the bacon is done - drain on paper towel. You will reserve one tablespoon or so of the grease, but dump the rest out. Add a little margarine to the bacon grease and then two tablespoons of flour (to make a paste). After the paste is made, slowly add cream while you are stirring. If you add it slowly, a little at a time, you can watch the sauce thicken and doesn't take as long over heat to thicken it. After the sauce is thickened, add a tablespoon of garlic, pepper and salt to taste. Reduce to low heat and stir frequently while you cook the 1/2 box of penne pasta (11 minutes till done). Drain pasta, put that in cream sauce. After chicken is done, chop it and mix that into the pasta and cream sauce. Mix together nicely and top with drained (chopped) bacon! Add some parmesan on top if you wish. Delicious! Serve with a salad.
