This is yet another recipe that my husband enjoys. You can add vegetables if you'd like (peas, portabella mushrooms, etc.). Also, the sauce may need doubling so be sure you have extra on hand just in case it's not to your liking. We always double our sauce!
Ingredients:
1 (7 ounce) package spaghetti
8 slices bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
1 garlic clove, finely chopped (or more!)
2 cups cooked chicken (cut up)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
1/2 cup whipping cream (heavy)
Directions:
1. Cook and drain spaghetti as directed on package.
2. While spaghetti is cooking, cook bacon in 3-quart saucepan over low heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until crisp. Remove bacon from saucepan and drain. Drain fat from saucepan but reserving 1 tablespoon in saucepan.
3. Cook onion and garlic in bacon fat over medium heat for about 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until onion is tender. Stir in spaghetti, chicken, cheese and whipping cream. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Toss with bacon.
