This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Sargento® Cheese. All opinions are 100% mine.
When I strap my toddler into the seat of the grocery cart, I know that I have approximately 0.36 seconds to grab everything that I need before the whining, grabbing, and meltdown ensues. There’s no time for dilly-dallying, no time for combing the shelves, and certainly no time for hunting down exotic ingredients. Instead, I keep my lists as short as possible and stick to the basic ingredients that I know my family loves (like bacon and cheese!), for easy quick-prep dinners that make the house feel cozy, nourish our bodies, and bring our family together at the end of an exhausting day.
Ingredients
- 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts or 2 large breasts thinly sliced, about 24 ounces total
- 1 tablespoon Ranch salad dressing and seasoning mix just the dry seasoning
- 1 jar 15 ounces or about 1 ¾ cups Alfredo pasta sauce
- 4 slices cooked chopped bacon*
- 3 slices Sargento provolone cheese
- Optional: fresh parsley or chives for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven the 375 degrees F. Spray a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
- Place chicken in prepared dish and sprinkle both sides of the meat with Ranch seasoning mix.
- Pour Alfredo sauce over top of the meat, toss to coat, and cover tightly with foil. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
- Remove chicken from the oven; top with cheese slices, breaking the cheese to fit on each piece of meat. Sprinkle with chopped bacon and return the dish to the oven (uncovered) for 5 more minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
- If desired, garnish with fresh herbs just before serving.
Recipe Notes
*I prepare my bacon ahead of time by baking in the oven on a rimmed baking sheet at 400 degrees for about 13 minutes. You can also use the microwave or just take a shortcut and buy the precooked bacon at the grocery store, crumbling it with you fingers as you sprinkle it over the chicken (that saves a step and doesn’t require any dirty dishes)!
