Time 2h3m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 (1 ounce) package dry ranch dressing mix (such as Hidden Valley Ranch®)
1 pound bacon
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2 (15 ounce) jars Alfredo sauce, divided
⅓ cup milk
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (16 ounce) package penne pasta
4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange chicken on the baking sheet.
  • Bake chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Dice chicken and place in a bowl; add ranch mix and stir until coated.
  • Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels, reserving bacon grease in the skillet. Crumble bacon into small pieces.
  • Heat reserved bacon grease in the skillet; cook and stir bell pepper until slightly tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken, 1 jar Alfredo sauce, milk, and garlic; cook and stir until heated through, about 5 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.
  • Pour 1/2 the jar of remaining Alfredo sauce into a casserole dish; top with 1/2 of the penne, 1/2 of the chicken mixture, 1 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, and 1/2 of the bacon. Repeat layering with remaining ingredients in the same order ending with 1 cup mozzarella cheese and bacon on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until casserole is bubbling and cheese is lightly browned, about 30 minutes.

CROCKPOT CHICKEN BACON RANCH TATER TOT CASSEROLE RECIPE - (4.6/5)



Crockpot Chicken Bacon Ranch Tater Tot Casserole Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by mikeimmell

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, finely chopped, approximately 1 cup
2 stalks of celery, finely chopped, approximately 1/2 cup
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into cubes
1 - 2 lb package of tater tots, divided
1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheese, divided
8 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled, divided (I used maple bacon)
1 cup milk
1 package dry ranch dressing mix (I used Hidden Ranch original)
2 cups of frozen mixed vegetables, divided, optional
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh or dried parsley flakes
Salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a small sauce pan and cook the onion and celery until they are soft and translucent in appearance, approximately 3 minutes. Add the finely chopped garlic and continue cooking approximately 2 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic. Set aside. Place 1/2 the tater tots on the bottom of a crock pot, that has been sprayed with Pam and sprinkle with 1/2 of the cooked onions, garlic and celery. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the cheese and 1/3 of the bacon over top. Place chicken pieces and 1 cup of the mixed vegetables on top and season with salt and pepper. Place another layer of 1/2 cup of cheese and 1/3 of the bacon crumbles over top. Place another layer of tater tots, cooked onions, celery and garlic, and the mixed vegetables on top, season again with salt and pepper and cover with the remaining cheese and bacon crumbles. Mix the milk with the dry ranch dressing seasoning mix and pour over top OR pour 1 cup of prepared Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing and 1/4 cup of milk over the top. Sprinkle the fresh or dry parsley flakes over the top. Bake in the crock pot for 1 hour on high and then turned it to low for an additional 3 hours. Please be sure to keep an eye on your crock pot while its cooking as different sized crock pot models cook differently. Yours might be just fine at 4 hours on low. Note: you can omit the milk and the Hidden Valley Ranch dry Mix and Substitute 1 cup of already prepared bottled Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing and 1/4 cup of milk in its place if you don't keep the Dry Hidden Valley Mix on hand in your cabinet. These directions are for a 6 qt slow cooker.

CHICKEN BACON AND RANCH RICE CASSEROLE



Chicken Bacon and Ranch Rice Casserole image

PLEASE NOTE: The rice will not cook through in the allotted time if the foil is nottightly sealedduring baking. I know 75 minutes seems like a long time to cook chicken breasts, but it does not dry out as it's nestled down in the rice mixture and sealed tightly with foil, keeping in the steam. If, after the full 75 minutes of cooking, the rice is still not quite tender, keep it covered tightly with foil outside of the oven for an extra ten minutes. The steam inside the dish will finish off the rice.

Number Of Ingredients 1

6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick spray.Add the rice, milk, cream of chicken soup, ranch dressing, and bacon to a bowl and stir well to combine.Pour rice mixture into the baking dish and place chicken tenderloins over the top.Cover tightly with foil and bake for 60 minutes, stirring once halfway through cooking.Remove the foil and top with the grated cheese.
