Appliances Used: Instant Pot (electric pressure cooker) and electric skillet.
First I cooked the pasta in the Instant Pot for half the cooking time indicated on the pasta box as the IP cooks the pasta way quicker than a regular pan/pot. You can even cut the time in half minus 1-2 minutes extra to keep the pasta al dente. I drained the pasta and temporarily put it inside a big plastic food storage tub I keep on the truck. Then I turned on the electric skillet, cut the skin and excess fat off of the chicken thighs. Put on salt and original Mrs Dash spices, added butter to the skillet and started frying up the chicken. Once one side was done and the chicken turned around in the skillet I added 3 strips of diced bacon. While this was cooking away I added the garlic, onion, red bell pepper and let that soften up. When the dish was almost done I added a small chart on of heavy cream and a cup of diced up green olives and let that simmer for about 10-15 minutes until the sauce thickened up. Once done I poured it all over the pasta and dinner was served. You can add grated cheese if you like. ☺️

Some days you don't have much time and quick, simple and tasty is what you want. I had actually fried up 6 boneless and skinless chicken thighs the night before so all I had to do is chop them up in big chunks, add half an onion, fry it all up again, add a bag of Uncle Ben's Ready Rice, cook for a minute. Plate it up, added half an avocado, diced up, to each plate and dinner was ready in 10 minutes! |
