1.5 lbs chicken breasts or tenderloins, diced
8 strips bacon, diced
7 oz shredded romaine lettuce
8 oz dry rotini or fusili pasta
6 oz shredded cheddar cheese
5 green onions, diced
¾ cup ranch dressing (homemade or store-bought)
1–2 tbsp poultry seasoning or Italian seasoning
Pinch of Salad Supreme seasoning (optional)
½ cup croutons, roughly chopped
Cook bacon over low heat until crispy. Set aside. Remove excess grease, leaving 2 tbsp in pan.
Rub chicken with olive oil and seasoning. Cook in skillet 3–4 mins per side until done.
Cook pasta according to package. Rinse with cool water and drain.
In a large bowl, mix pasta, chicken, cheddar, bacon, and green onions. Add most of the ranch dressing and toss. Sprinkle in Salad Supreme seasoning if using.
Right before serving, toss in romaine, croutons, and reserved dressing.
Keep romaine, croutons, and extra dressing separate until ready to serve for best texture!
