So this is what it looks like when they make it.
This is what it looks like when I make it.
Ok, so not too bad once you take away the nice camera, the pretty plate and the good lighting. I think I did pretty good on this one. It's fairly easy, fairly tasty, but I'd make some substitutions if I make it again.
I followed the recipe pretty much to the letter only really fudging the amount of pepper I used. We love pepper, but the blogger pinned stated it can get VERY peppery.
Overall Comments: This recipe is what happens when a traditional recipe and a crock pot recipe hook up in a car on a summer night. Cooking the chicken takes all day (6 hours) in the crockpot, but figure another 45 minutes to cook the bacon, the pasta and make the sauce.
Cost (approximately): $3 for bacon, $1 marinade, $1 chicken, $2 cream, $2 cheese, $0.75 pasta.
Would I make it again? Yeah, it's pretty tasty. I'd likely add in some sauteed onions and a sweeter veggie such as corn or peas to balance out the greasy feel from the bacon, butter, cream and cheese.
What does the Mr think? "It reminds me of a carbonara. I'd add onions, some white wine and maybe some peas."
