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.

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!

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."

PAULA DEEN'S AMAZING CHICKEN CASSEROLE RECIPE - (4.6/5)



Paula Deen's Amazing Chicken Casserole Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by JUDY2949

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups chicken, cooked, cut in small bite-sized pieces
4 cups pasta, cooked and drained (approximately 2 cups uncooked); penne, cavatappi, or rigatoni works well
3 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup milk
3 cups cheese, grated (cheddar, colby jack, Swiss, or a combination), with 1/2 cup reserved for sprinkling on top
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
salt and black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease the inside of a 9x13-inch baking dish. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and cook the onion and garlic until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the flour and whisk together for about 1 minute, this will allow the flour to cook just a little before adding the other ingredients. Add the sour cream and milk, and continue whisking until the mixture has thickened. Remove from heat and add all but ½ cup of the cheese. Add the red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper, cooked chicken, and cooked pasta. Stir together, then layer evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheese evenly over the top of the casserole and bake for 30 minutes or until the cheese on top is melted and the sauce is bubbly. Remove the casserole and let it sit for about 15 minutes prior to serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for fresh chicken breasts, thick-cut bacon, and a creamy Alfredo sauce.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Cook it over medium heat until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy. This will add a nice smoky flavor to the dish.
  • Use a good quality Alfredo sauce. You can either make your own or use a store-bought brand.
  • Serve the chicken Alfredo with your favorite sides. Some popular options include pasta, rice, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Chicken Alfredo with Crispy Bacon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great dish to serve at parties or potlucks. With its creamy Alfredo sauce, crispy bacon, and tender chicken, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
