Chicken, Bacon and Broccoli


Pasta that is. My boys love pasta so it is always on the menu. Pasta can be boring at times and can also lack nutrition so I sneak in a few veggies as best as I can. This one is very easy to make. If you have leftover rotisserie chicken, even better. Prep time will be faster. If not, just use some chopped chicken breast fillets. 

You need:

olive oil
chicken breast fillet, skins remove or leftover rotisserie chicken
minced garlic
cream
milk
Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses
your pasta of choice
broccoli florets (I cut them up into tiny florets so that the taste won't over power all the ingredients)
cooked bacon, chopped
salt and pepper

Let's do this!

Cook pasta according to package directions. 

In a pan, heat olive oil. If you are using chicken breast, season with salt and pepper before cooking. Cook the chicken. If you are using rotisserie chicken, cook the garlic first. Add the broccoli florets.  Then add the cream and milk and bring to a boil. Add the cheese and stir until completely melted. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken and bacon.  Add the cooked pasta and mix well. Taste again and season accordingly.
