Cooking InstructionsHide images

step 1

Bring a large pot of salted Water (24 fl oz) to a boil. Add the Penne Pasta (8 oz) and cook according to package direction until al dente. Around 10-12 minutes.

step 2

While this is cooking, heat a sauté pan over medium heat and cook the Bacon (6 slices) until crispy, around 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer onto a lined plate with a paper towel. Leave about 2 Tbsp of bacon grease in the pan and drain the rest.

step 3

Add the Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast (1 lb) to the same pan and cook all the way through, about 3-4 minutes.

step 4

Once the pasta is cooked and most of the water is absorbed, add Ranch Seasoning Powder Mix (1 Tbsp), cooked bacon, cooked chicken, Heavy Cream (4 oz), Sharp Cheddar Cheese (1 cup), Salt (1 tsp), and Ground Black Pepper (1 tsp).

step 5

Remove from heat and allow to set for 5 minutes, or until sauce has thickened.

step 6

Garnish with Fresh Parsley (1 Tbsp) and serve.
