Categories     Poultry

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb mostaccioli pasta
6 slices bacon, diced
1 tablespoon butter
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut into bite-size pieces
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 (1/2 ounce) packet ranch dressing mix
2 cups milk
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Cook pasta according to package directions in boiling salted water; drain, return to pot, and keep warm.
  • 2. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Drain on paper towels. Drain all but one tablespoon of bacon drippings from the pan.
  • 3. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add the butter to the reserved bacon drippings, then add the chicken to the same skillet. Cook until tender, no longer pink, and slightly browned.
  • 4. Sprinkle the flour and ranch dressing mix over the chicken, stirring to coat evenly. Stir in the milk, and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened and bubbly. Stir in the cheddar cheese and half of the reserved bacon; cook and stir until the cheese is melted.
  • 5. Serve each plate of pasta with more bacon sprinkled over the top.

I've made this dish several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The chicken is always moist and flavorful, and the sauce is creamy and tangy. I've even used different types of pasta, such as penne or rotini, and it's always turned out great.
