Hatch Green Chile Recipe, Creamy Chicken Pasta Carbonara

 

 
 
Valentines Day has always been special to me. I love the basic idea of just telling your loved ones that they hold a special place in your heart.
 

You don’t need big bouquets, large boxes of candy or stuffed animals to accomplish this.   A sweet little hand-drawn valentine or a special home-cooked dish always works for us.

 
We don’t like to go out on Valentines Day, it’s always more special for us to enjoy an intimate dinner at home.

  • Mix in the cooked chicken and bacon pieces
  • Pour into 4 individual bakings dishes or a 7 X 5 baking dish filling to the very top
  • 10. Melt two tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan, add the panko crumbs and stir until butter is absorbed and panko crumbs are golden brown. Top the pasta with the panko crumbs

    Tried this last night. It was great even though I didn't have bow tie pasta, I used penne. My husband said it was a keeper.
    The green chilies make this dish.
    Thanks for the recipe,
    Bev
