Chicken Bacon Pasta

Pasta and chicken are the perfect duo in this spicy capellini dish. Inspired by the Southern Italian tradition of red-hot chilies, we balance the heat of the pepper with citrus and baby arugula for one accomplished chicken bacon pasta dish — easy enough for a week-night dinner.

Ingredients

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 425˚ F.
  • Coat chicken with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Rub with paprika and chili pepper. Arrange chicken in a baking dish and bake for about 20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the oven and set aside.
  • In the meantime, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta for al dente texture. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of cooking water.
  • In a large saucepan on medium high heat, cook bacon with garlic and remaining olive oil until crispy, about 10 minutes. Remove garlic and discard.
  • Add cooked pasta, lemon juice, zest and arugula to the pan. Add cooking water, if desired to help coat. Toss together for about 2 minutes on medium-high heat to incorporate flavors.
  • Serve chicken sliced atop pasta.
