GW, that is going to be our dinner tomorrow night. I have some wonderful bacon to use up. Thanks!

I know I'm a little late coming in on this, but reading this thread reminded me of a dish I created a while back when I had limited ingredients, but it was so tasty. It's not chicken, tho you could take out some of the bacon and add some cut up chicken breast, but it's creamy and it's pasta.

Creamy Bacon Pasta
1/2 lb. pasta (I use spaghetti)
1/2 lb. bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 tsp. pepper

Cook spaghetti according to package directions, drain. Set aside.
Cook the bacon pieces until starting to brown, add the onion and cook until tender. If the bacon gave off a lot of grease, drain off most of the drippings, add the garlic and cook for another minute . Add the cream and bring to a boil and cook until it starts to thicken. Add the parmesan cheese and pasta. Toss.
