Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 strips thick cut bacon, sliced
1 lb chicken breast, cubed
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
pepper, to taste
1 small onion, sliced
½ lb asparagus, cut into 1-inch or 2 1/2 cm long pieces
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups fresh spinach
⅓ cup sun-dried tomato, roughly chopped
6 cups milk
1 lb rotini pasta
1 ¼ cups shredded parmesan cheese

Steps:

In a large pot, crisp the bacon on medium heat.
Drain excess grease so there's about 3 tablespoons left in the pot.
Add in the chicken, season with half of the seasoned salt and pepper, and cook.
Once the chicken is nicely browned, remove it from the pan but leave the bacon.
Add in the onion and asparagus. Stir until the onions begin to become translucent.
Add the garlic and spinach. Stir until spinach is wilted.
Add in the sun-dried tomatoes and season with remaining salt and pepper.
Pour milk over veggie and bacon mixture, and bring to a boil. Stir periodically so the bottom does not burn.
Once milk is bubbling, add pasta and stir frequently until pasta reaches your desired doneness (approximately 10 minutes at medium heat).
Stir in chicken and parmesan cheese and mix until cheese is melted.
Enjoy!
