    Bacon Chicken Pasta

     Bacon Chicken Pasta in bowl over fish patterned cloth

    We went to law school in Moscow. Moscow Idaho. not "Moss-cow" but moss-coe idaho. (Don't get it wrong up there or they'll start calling you a cow and all sorts of nonsense) It's a teeny tiny hippy town. Held together by an engineering company and the college, right on the Washington/Idaho border. It's also the best town ever. I dreaded moving there- living in a town there are very little options for any kind of shopping or activities or eating, and yet, when it came time to leave I was beyond sad.  I LOVED the people, everyone was so kind. I LOVED the rolling hills. I loved being able to get where I was going in under 5 minutes, and unexpectedly I LOVED not having all the shopping options. You learn to live on less and live happier. I just loved it.

    We made good friends- one of them invited a few of us over for dinner and made this pasta for us. There were three families, (6 adults and probably about 6 kids) and it easily fed us all.

    Prep all your ingredients with my fav Zwilling  prep knife.  This guy is perfect for mincing garlic, dicing chicken, slicing bacon, and rough chopping the sun dried tomatoes.  You don't have to bother with an enormous knife, but you get all the benefits of a big chef's knife.
    This dish is definitely an indulgence, but so so worth it!
