Cheesy Chicken Carbonara With Fettuccine


6 oz fettuccine
3/4 cup fat-free milk
1/3 cup grated parmesan
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
4 slices center-cut bacon, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 cup chopped cooked chicken breast


1. Cook the pasta according to package directions, omitting salt if desired. Drain and keep warm.


2. Meanwhile, whisk the milk, Parmesan, egg, salt, and pepper in a bowl until blended.


3. Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the bacon begins to brown, 3-4 minutes. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring often, until the onion begins to brown, 2-3 minutes. *Optional - add 1 thinly sliced red bell pepper with onion.

4. Add the chicken and cook until heated through, 1-2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the fettuccine and the milk mixture. Cook, tossing, until the sauce is thickened and creamy, 2-3 minutes.
