Sauce: 1/2 cup butter/margarine 2 cups milk
8oz cream cheese 1 cup parmesan (grated)
2tsp garlic powder 1/8 ground black pepper
2-4tbsp Bacon bits
Pasta: 12oz bag Egg Noodles (only use half)
2tsp Salt
6 cups water
Chicken: 3-4 small breasts
Garlic salt (optional)
salt
ground black pepper
worcestershire sauce (optional)
Bread: 1 loaf italian bread ( or any other.- italian is just my fav. for this recipe.)
Spreadable margarine/ butter
garlic salt
grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
Sauce: In medium sauce pan on med. heat, melt butter/margarine. Add cream cheese & garlic powder.
Stir with whisk until combined. Mix in milk adding a little at a time. Add parmesan & pepper.
Cook 5mins, or until desired consistency. (If sauce thickens too much add a little milk to thin it
out.) Add bacon bits.
Pasta: In medium pot add water & salt. Bring to boil. Add noodles & cook 10-12mins stirring
Occasionally. Drain. Return to pot. ( If pasta finishes before sauce or chicken, remove from
heat & keep in water.) - this keeps the pasta warm, because pasta loses heat quickly.)
Chicken: Cook on stove top on medium-large skillet. Spray pan with cooking spray, place chicken
on pan. Season as desired. Cook on med-high heat until done. (180*f) flipping when needed. (Let soak in cold salt
water 5mins prior to cooking for more tender chicken.)
Bread: Cut bread in slices. Spread with butter/margarine. Sprinkle with parmesan & garlic salt as
desired. Broil in oven 3-5 mins or until butter/margarine & cheese is melted & edges are
lightly browned.
Bringing it all together: Add pasta to sauce, place on plates or bowls. Cut chicken in strips and
lay on top of pasta. Sprinkle with parmesan if desired.
*Notes:*
If you find that your not so skilled at multi-tasking, I suggest getting the pasta going & then
cooking the chicken until done. Then turning the pan down to LOW heat. (almost off)
to keep warm. Then start cooking your sauce.
