Chicken, Bacon, and Tomato Bowtie Pasta

This Chicken, Bacon, and Tomato Bowtie Pasta is BEYOND amazing! This pasta dish is bursting with flavor! It is easily my families most loved meal.

This chicken, bacon, tomato bowtie pasta dish is good! My family goes crazy for it. The bacon brings a blast of flavor in each bite, while the tomatoes add the perfect softness to the dish. It’s one of our most favorite dinners. It’s easy to prep and takes little time to put together.

We love the creaminess and bold flavors in this pasta dish. I promise, you’ll gobble this up! If you don’t have grilled chicken, substitute it for bottle chicken or rotisserie chicken. Occasionally I’ll make this with bottled chicken and it turns out wonderfully.

Give it a try! You’ll be glad you did!

Recipe Notes

Don't be too strict with the bacon. I don't always measure exactly 1/4 cup. We like a little extra bacon in ours so feel free to add to your liking.
