Chicken Bacon Ranch Pasta You'll Be Craving On Repeat

Boil water in a pot.

Add salt to the boiling water for flavor.

Add 1 pound of rotini noodles to the boiling water and cook for 11 minutes for al dente texture.

While the noodles are cooking, prepare the bacon by frying 6-7 pieces in a pan until golden brown and crispy.

Slice the 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts into even pieces for even cooking.

Season the chicken pieces with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and parsley flakes. Let sit for 15 minutes to absorb flavors.

Heat a pan with a little cooking oil and add the seasoned chicken pieces, ensuring they are not piled on top of each other to avoid steaming.

Cook the chicken until it is done, ensuring each piece gets a nice sear.

Once the chicken is cooked, transfer it to a platter and set aside.

Chop the cooked bacon into smaller pieces.

Rinse the cooked noodles with cool water in a strainer.
