Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package directions, about 8-10 minutes or until al dente; drain well. Transfer to a deep 9x13 inch baking dish. (15 minutes)

03

Step

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Season generously with salt and pepper. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Dip the chicken breasts in the egg mixture, then dredge in panko bread crumbs, ensuring they are fully coated. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry chicken breasts until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove to paper towels to drain excess oil. (15 minutes)

06

Step

Drain any excess oil from the skillet, leaving a light coating. (1 minute)

07

Step

While the chicken is cooking, place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until crisp, about 8-10 minutes. Remove bacon from pan, crumble, and set aside. (10 minutes)

08

Step

Place the skillet (that used to have chicken in it) over medium heat. Add diced tomato and onion, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the crumbled bacon. (10 minutes)

09

Step

Pour in the honey mustard barbecue sauce and spicy brown mustard. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. (5 minutes)

10

Step

Pour the sauce over the cooked pasta in the baking dish. Arrange the fried chicken breasts on top of the sauce-covered pasta, then cover generously with shredded Monterey Jack cheese. (5 minutes)

11

Step

Bake for 15-20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown, and the dish is heated through. (20 minutes)

12

Step

Let cool slightly before serving.

For a richer flavor, consider using smoked bacon.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce for a subtle kick.
If you don't have Monterey Jack, mozzarella or a blend of cheddar and Monterey Jack works well.
