Recipe For Chicken Bacon Alfredo

This Creamy Chicken and Bacon Pasta is one for all those days when nothing but a creamy pasta will do. It’s unapologetically indulgent, andloaded with all the essential food groups– cream, parmesan, chicken and BACON.Very little prep, on the table in 20 minutes!

I’ve been crowned theQueen of Creamy-Without-Cream*, but today I’m dethroning myself temporarily just so I can share thisCreamy Chicken and Bacon Pasta with you without an inkling of guilt.

Chicken

We’ve made it to the end of the year, and the month of December is about indulgences. I’ve been very sensible in the past and shared real Alfredo recipes, made the real proper Italian way.That recipe uses just 1/2 cup of cream for 250g / 0.5 lb of pasta.

Chicken Bacon Ranch Casserole • Salt & Lavender

This recipe uses 3/4 cup of cream for 180g / 6 oz of pasta.I was very honest with you right from the outset….this is indulgent!

* I have been known in the past for self proclaimed titles (such as Roast Queen). However, on this particular occasion, it was in fact the editor of Super Food Ideas magazine who pointed out my fetish for creamy-without-cream. I feel that provides some level of authority for this title!

I actually photographed and filmed the recipe video about a month ago. I’ve been waiting for the right time to share it. I feel like making it to the end of the year, relatively unscathed, warrants some form of celebration.

Chicken & Bacon Alfredo

After all, it is the month for excessive food indulgences, right?The month where even when we’re absolutely determined to eat healthy, there are treats at every turn enticing us. Office occasions, food gifts, gatherings with families and friends.

I do feel a bit guilty sharing such an indulgent treat with you. So I promise you, I have a big healthy fix coming up soon.Maybe even this Wednesday!

In the meantime, just think back to all you have achieved in 2016. Even if you didn’t make a dent in your list, ignore the fails and focus on the successes. Give yourself a pat on the back, a praise.

Recipe Title: Chicken Bacon Alfredo Pizza

Recipe video above. For all those days when nothing but a creamy pasta will do! This one is loaded with all the essential food groups - chicken, bacon, cream and parmesan. It's saucier and richer than the classic Alfredo.

1. Just before you drain the pasta, scoop out a mugful of the pasta cooking water. This will be used for the sauce - the starch in the water reacts with the oil in the cream / butter and thickens the sauce.

Creamy

2. Fresh grated parmesan is finer than store bought so it melts in the sauce. If you use store bought, ensure you use a finely grated one otherwise it won't melt properly so the sauce won't be silky smooth (flavour will still be delish though!)

3. I know it feels like a crime to throw out the bacon fat. I actually photographed and filmed this without wiping the pan and not using butter, but I really just felt the sauce tasted too bacony. Also it was brown instead of white. 🙂 So that's why I wipe the pan. You don't have to. You could skip the butter and use the bacon fat instead. But it will taste much more bacony, bordering on greasy rather than buttery creamy sauce (depending on how fatty the bacon is), and the colour will be light brown instead of white.

Nutrition is per serving. This takes into account 1 1/2 tbsp of fat that is discarded after cooking the bacon. 271 calories of the total 946 calories is attributable to the bacon. If you use ham instead of bacon (really yum!), it reduces to 790 calories per serving.
