Creamy and Delicious Chicken Bacon Ranch Pasta filled with bacon, chicken and cheese all made in one pot!
Who here loves pasta? If you’re anything like us, pasta is usually a weekly staple in our house. It’s quick, easy, tastes the bomb! I just feel like whenever there’s chicken AND bacon involved in any recipe you know it’s going to be a hit. Believe me when I say this – this Chicken Bacon Ranch Pasta recipe is one of the BEST pasta dishes that I’ve ever made. I’m not just saying that because I made it but y’all, the ranch seasoning paired with the creamy sauce and crispy bacon, ahh!
QUICK TIP
- This pasta is usually best served fresh. The sauce tends to separate and become oily due to the fat content in the heavy cream. This is especially true if you’re warming it up on high in a microwave. If you’re reheating the pasta, I recommend warming it up on a low heat.
