Creamy Bacon Buffalo Chicken Pasta Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook bow-tie pasta at a boil, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add cream cheese and ranch dressing mix; whisk until smooth. Slowly whisk in milk. Stir in Monterey Jack cheese; cook until cheese has melted and sauce has thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Crumble 6 slices bacon and stir into sauce.
• Combine cooked pasta and shredded chicken in a large bowl. Pour sauce on top and mix until well combined. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Top with Cheddar Jack cheese and crumble remaining 2 slices of bacon on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese has melted, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large pot, crisp the bacon on medium heat.
• Drain excess grease so there's about 3 tablespoons left in the pot.
• Add in the chicken, season with half of the seasoned salt and pepper, and cook.
• Once the chicken is nicely browned, remove it from the pan but leave the bacon.
• Add in the onion and asparagus. Stir until the onions begin to become translucent.
• Add the garlic and spinach. Stir until spinach is wilted.
• Add in the sun-dried tomatoes and season with remaining salt and pepper.
• Pour milk over veggie and bacon mixture, and bring to a boil. Stir periodically so the bottom does not burn.
• Once milk is bubbling, add pasta and stir frequently until pasta reaches your desired doneness (approximately 10 minutes at medium heat).
• Stir in chicken and parmesan cheese and mix until cheese is melted.
• Enjoy!
