Ingredients

8 slice bacon, crispy fried and crumbled
3 Tbsp butter
2 large chicken breast halves, skinless and boneless (cut in half to have 4 pieces)
1/2 c all purpose flour
1/2 c milk
1 large egg
1 c panko bread crumbs
1/4 c parmesan cheese, grated
3 Tbsp all purpose flour
(1-oz) packet ranch salad dressing & seasoning mix
2 c milk, 2% ( you can use whole milk if you prefer)
1 c cup shredded cheddar cheese
salt and pepper to taste
1 (16-oz) package penne pasta, cooked to directions
sliced green onions for garnish if desired

Steps:

1. Fry bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy; drain on paper towels. Reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon grease for frying chicken. NOTE: save the rest for another recipe! I never discard good bacon grease.
2. I use extra-large skinless chicken breast (from SAM's) that I slice in half. Pound the chicken between two sheets of plastic wrap to about 1-inch thickness; coat chicken for frying.
3. Using three cake pans or bowls; add flour to one; season with salt and pepper. Add egg and milk to 2nd pan and then panko and parmesan to third pan; seasoned with salt.
4. Coat both sides of chicken with flour, coat both sides in the milk/egg mixture and then coat in panko.
5. Add butter to the reserved bacon drippings, and then add chicken to the same skillet. Cook until golden browned and done; remove from pan and set aside. Let chicken rest for 5 minutes before cutting/slicing it. This will help keep the chicken moist and from becoming too dry.
6. Add 3 tablespoons flour and ranch dressing mix into pan. Add additional butter if needed. Stir in the milk, stirring occasionally, until thickened and bubbly. Stir in the cheddar cheese; cook and stir until the cheese is melted. Taste for seasoning and adjust as needed.
7. Cook pasta according to package directions in boiling salted water; drain and return to pot. Stir in all but a little of the sauce and 1/2 of the bacon.
8. Plate pasta, slice chicken to go on top; drizzle with remaining sauce and top with remaining bacon and sliced green onions if desired.
9. Enjoy!
