Chicken Something Pasta

I found a recipe on Pinterest for Chicken Bacon Ranch Pasta. I was disappointed because there is nothing 'ranch' about it. I also changed it because I didn't want to cook any bacon... But the outcome did turn out pretty good. 

Ingredients needed are... 
chicken breasts
penne pasta
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 c heavy cream
1/4 c cream cheese
1/4 c shredded parmesan cheese
2 eggs
1/4 tsp black pepper


The first thing I did was bake the chicken breasts, I always use olive oil on the chicken, makes it nice and tender. While that was baking I boiled the penne pasta.

To make the sauce...
1. heat the cream cheese (it will work a lot better if it's room temperature) and heavy cream on low. Whisk until smooth

2. Remove from heat and add parmesan cheese, eggs, garlic powder, pepper and whisk until blended. 

3. Add sauce to the pasta

4. Add the chicken

5. Serve with a salad... and delicious!

and here's my sweet helper!

  1. Looks yummy. I never start dinner early enough to have time for cream cheese to be room temp, but maybe one weekend I can try it!
