SCALLOPED CHICKEN
My husband has never been too fond of chicken, but he certainly likes it prepared this way. My children love this dish, too, and they make it often in their own homes. For easy preparation, make everything but the topping a day ahead and then refrigerate it. Add the topping before baking.

Steps:
- Gather all the ingredients.
- Pound the chicken tenders with meat pounder to flatten them. Season them with salt and pepper. Diced onion and bacon into small pieces and slice garlic.
- Start boiling water to cook pasta in a large pot. When the pasta is cooked, drain water but please remember to keep ½ cup of the water that was used to cook the pasta. Set aside if the pasta sauce is not cooked yet.
- Meanwhile in a large frying pan, heat olive oil on medium heat. Fry the chicken on both sides until slightly browned. Transfer onto a plate and set aside.
- In the same frying pan, sauté the onions and garlic for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the bacon and cook until onions become translucent.
- Add the thyme and mushrooms and sauté until mushrooms become soft.
- Add the tomatoes, cream, butter, and lemon juice. Bring it to a simmer and season with salt and pepper to taste. If you add bacon, it's already salty so be careful not to make it too salty (keep in mind the pasta will make the sauce more bland). Remove from heat.
- By this time pasta is cooked already, so add the pasta in the pan and toss it in the creamy sauce. Slowly stir in the pasta water to loosen up and thin out the sauce.
- Add the chicken to the pan and toss lightly so that chicken will warm up. Serve the pasta on the serving plates, top with the chicken and sauce. Garnish with arugula and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

CHICKEN AND SCALLOP STIR FRY
Originally this recipe came from Recipezaar's "Stir Fry Scallops" But I didn't have a lot of the ingredients so it ended up being very different! I loved the outcome and thought it would be best just to post a separate variation to that recipe. We ate it with rice but my family had suggested they would have liked it with rice noodles also. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did :)

This one's from my Grandma. It was spoon fed to us in our high chairs. Easy for babies and toddlers to eat. Sticks to the bone and comfort food. It is also inexpensive and requires only a few ingredients you probably have on hand. You may use this with leftover chicken or turkey.

Tips:
- Choose the right pasta. Short, stubby pastas like shells, penne, or macaroni are ideal for this dish, as they hold the sauce well.
- Use a flavorful cheese. A sharp cheddar, Gruyère, or Parmesan will give the dish a rich, cheesy flavor.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken should be cooked through but still moist. Overcooked chicken will be tough and dry.
- Make sure the sauce is creamy. The sauce should be thick and creamy, not watery. If it's too thin, add a little more cheese or flour.
- Serve immediately. Scalloped chicken and pasta is best served hot out of the oven.

Scalloped chicken and pasta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple tips, you can make a scalloped chicken and pasta dish that your family will love.
