I mixed pasta, chicken, bacon, and mushrooms in a light ricotta sauce. Ricotta is relatively low in calories but high in protein.

Stove Top Chicken Ricotta Pasta

  1. Stove Top Chicken Ricotta Pasta is a great way to use leftover or rotisserie chicken.
  2. As well, if you don’t like mushrooms, omit them.
  3. If you don’t have chicken stock or broth, add a chicken bouillon cube and 1/2 cup water from the pasta you boiled.
  4. Add a handful of fresh spinach if you have some on hand.
  5. You could also omit the chicken and bacon and have a delish meatless entrée or side.

Tips on searing meat

  • I recommend a large skillet to sear the chicken. Notably, you just can’t beat a cast-iron skillet!
  • Sear chicken on medium-high heat.
  • Also, it’s important to use oil with a high smoke point such as vegetable or canola oil to prevent the meat from burning.
  • Finally, when searing meat, don’t move it around. Allow it to sit and cook. It will release from the pan when it’s ready. If it’s sticking to the pan, it’s not done searing.

    Everyone loved it and I will definitely be making it again.
    I did not use the mushroom (my husband’s not a fan). I would use more spinach next time, though.
    Very easy and tasty!

      Very very nice.
      I added some white wine in the mushroom cooking process.

    Greetings from Spain ! This is a great way of using up leftover cooked chicken. I cooked it in a paellera, which is like a wide frying pan made for cooking paella.

    What is half and half please? There is no hint as to what it is but it’s probably some kind of liquid I guess. Milk and water? Help!

      It’s half heavy whipping cream and half milk. You can sub with whole milk or heavy whipping cream.

    I had to google what half and half is. We don’t have that in Australia. Maybe it could be worth putting it as milk and cream in your recipe?

    Um…nowhere does the recipe say when to add the spices or the Parmesan. I assumed the Parmesan was for sprinkling on at the end, but thought half a cup is a lot for that. I think if added with the riccatta and cream it also would have helped to thicken up the sauce as it seemed too runny. Also, I wouldn’t have ended up adding any spices except I had gotten them ready from the list of ingredients. I added them at the end, but think if it simmered with the spices it might have been more flavorful. Overall I liked it, but my hubby was not impressed.
