Creamy Chicken Pasta

1 Packet (375g) pasta
500g bacon cut into pieces
200g mushrooms, finely sliced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/4 tspground pepper

onion / spring onion
300ml thickened cream

 

Cook the pasta in saucepan. Before draining the pasta, reserve half a cup of the pasta water.
 

Saute bacon & garlic in frypan until starting to brown. Add the mushrooms & onion and cook for a few more minutes.
 

Add the reserved pasta water to the bacon mixture and pepper. Add the cream and simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens. Add salt if required.
 

Stir the drained pasta through the sauce. Serve with freshly grated parmesan or grated cheese (or leave out altogether..it still tastes good!).
