Ingredients
- 8 bacon (chopped and trimmed of all fat)
- 2 chicken breasts (large, diced into 1-inch pieces)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 teaspoons Kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 6 1/2 cups milk (full fat or 2% - you can also use half and half)
- 1 pound dry fettuccine pasta
- 1 broccoli head (cut into florets, stem removed)
- 1 cup parmesan cheese (fresh grated)
Steps
-
Fry the bacon in a large saucepan or pot over medium-high heat until crispy.
-
Add the chicken and sauté until cooked through. Add the garlic and fry until fragrant (about 2 minutes). Season with, salt and pepper.
-
Pour in the milk, stir, and bring the milk to a gentle simmer. Reduce heat immediately and add the pasta.
-
Stir occasionally for 5-6 minutes, or until the pasta just begins to bend and soften. Add in the broccoli, stir and cover with a lid. Continue to cook, while stirring occasionally, until the pasta is cooked and al dente (about another 7 minutes).
-
Stir through the Parmesan cheese and mix until the cheese has melted through the sauce. The sauce will continue to thicken if not served immediately. Add more milk if needed.
-
Serve with extra pepper and parmesan cheese, if desired.
