Servings: persons

1 lb farfalle pasta
2 -3 roma tomatoes, diced
1 medium onion, diced
2 -3 teaspoons chopped garlic
0.5 (16 ounce) bottle fat-free Italian salad dressing
4 -5 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
2 cups cooked chicken (I used Tyson frozen grilled chicken strips)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 pint half-and-half
milk (as needed)
parsley
salt and pepper

1
With a little oil, saute the onions over medium low heat in a deep skillet. My preference when cooking onions is to let them get a lot of color.
2
Next, add the bacon, garlic, and Italian dressing. The dressing makes a nice base for the sauce, but I like to let it simmer for a few minutes like this so the majority of the vinegar taste cooks off.
3
Add the half and half, you can use fat-free if you would like. It's important at this step to be sure that your skillet isn't too hot, as you don't want the dairy to curdle or separate.
4
Now it's time to add your cooked chicken, mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, and parsley. I added my chicken while it was still mostly frozen, and it still turned out lovely.
5
Now is the time when you need to decide your preference in sauce. Do you like it a little thicker? Throw in some more cheese. Is it way too gloppy and thick? Add in a splash or two of milk until you get the consistency you like. Once you're happy, cover your sauce and keep over medium-low heat while you prepare your farfalle. Stir occasionally.
6
When pasta is done and drained, toss it all together and enjoy.
