Ingredients
1 pound rigatoni
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 red bell pepper
1 Anaheim pepper
4 strips bacon, diced
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 yellow onion, small-diced
Two 28-ounce cans crushed tomatoes
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 pound chicken tenderloins, cooked and diced
1 cup grated Parmesan
Directions
- Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a rapid boil. Add the rigatoni and boil for 8 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet to medium-high heat. Dry roast the peppers for 7 minutes, until charred. Remove the peppers from the pan and chop into large dice.
- In the same skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Add the olive oil and then the onions and diced peppers; cook for 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cream and simmer until reduced by half. Add the chicken, Parmesan, 1 1/2 tablespoons salt and 2 teaspoons black pepper; cook until the chicken is heated through. Stir the rigatoni into the sauce. Serve hot.
