Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the ziti and cook according to the package directions MINUS 1 minute. Drain and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the chopped bacon and cook until it's nice and crispy. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. (Set some of the bacon aside for garnish if you'd like.)
- Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until it has turned partly white. Sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Continue cooking until the chicken is cooked through.
- Add the heavy cream, chicken broth, and parmesan to the skillet. Bring to a simmer. Then add the cooked ziti and bacon. Stir on the stove for 2 minutes until the sauce reduces and thickens, coating the pasta.
- Serve immediately, garnished with fresh basil, parmesan, and the reserved bacon.
