So do you have leftover Bacon Chicken in your fridge? Make Creamy Bacon Chicken Pasta with the leftovers and five more ingredients! Or make this luscious recipe using any cooked chicken; add some cooked and crumbled bacon if you'd like.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

Yield: Serves 4-6

Ingredients:

  • 3 Bacon Chicken breasts or any precooked chicken breasts
  • 1 (16-ounce) jar Cheddar cheese pasta sauce
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 (16-ounce) package spaghetti pasta
  • 2 cups frozen peas
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation:

Cut 3 breasts of Bacon Chicken, including the bacon topping, into small pieces and set aside.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, place the pasta sauce in a large saucepan. Add milk to pasta sauce jar, close lid, and shake; pour this mixture into the saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add chicken and bacon topping and stir.

Cook pasta until al dente. Place peas in a colander, and drain the pasta over the peas to thaw. Add pasta and peas to sauce with chicken and toss over medium heat 2 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese and serve.

Excellent recipe, Guest Ann

I did make Bacon Chicken and saved leftovers to make this recipe. It was super fast, easy to make, and really delicious. The kids didn't even make a peep about the leftovers! Thanks for this excellent recipe.
