Ingredients
:

– 8 oz pasta (your choice of shape)
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
– 6 slices bacon, chopped
– 1/2 cup ranch dressing
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1/2 cup milk
– 1 small onion, diced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley for garnish

3. In the same skillet, add the bacon and cook until crispy. Remove bacon and set aside on a paper towel to drain.

7. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with the remaining cheese and chopped parsley before serving.
