Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Four Cheese Chicken Carbonara Dish.
Step 1
Begin by heating a large skillet over medium-high heat and cooking the bacon, turning it occasionally until it achieves a beautiful golden brown, which should take about 10 minutes.
Step 2
Once perfectly crisp, transfer the bacon to paper towels to drain and allow it to cool before chopping it into bite-sized pieces.
Step 3
Meanwhile, bring a generous pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil.
Step 4
Add the penne pasta along with a splash of olive oil, cooking until al dente, which should take around 8 minutes.
Step 5
Drain the pasta and set it aside, letting it rest while you prepare the sauce.
Step 6
In a separate large, deep skillet, melt butter over low heat.
Step 7
Introduce the chopped bacon, minced garlic, and a teaspoon of black pepper, sautéing for 2 to 3 minutes until the aroma fills your kitchen.
Step 8
Raise the heat to medium and add the sliced chicken, cooking until it turns a lovely white and the juices run clear, which will take about 5 to 7 minutes.
Step 9
Next, pour in the heavy whipping cream, followed by the Parmesan-Romano cheese and the remaining black pepper.
Step 10
Stir gently and heat through for about 3 minutes.
Step 11
Then, add the Colby Jack cheese, stirring until it melts into a creamy delight.
Step 12
Finally, incorporate the beaten eggs and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Step 13
Toss in the drained pasta, ensuring every piece is luxuriously coated in that rich, creamy sauce.
Step 14
Enjoy this comforting dish that brings warmth and satisfaction to your table.
