Categories: Poultry, Seafood, Dairy, Pasta, Cheese
     Yield: 6 Servings

   3/4 lb Chicken; boned, skinned
   1/3 c  A-P flour
     1 ts Salt
     1 ts Pepper
     1 c  Milk
 1 1/2 c  Panko bread crumbs
   3/4 c  Parmesan cheese; grated
   1/4 c  Oil

MMMMM-----------------------PASTA & SAUCE----------------------------
    16 oz Spaghetti or bucatini
     4 sl Bacon
     3 cl Garlic; minced
     1 c  Heavy whipping cream
 Pound chicken with a meat mallet to 1/2" thickness. Cut in 3"
 strips. In a shallow bowl, mix flour, salt, and pepper. Place
 milk and bread crumbs in separate shallow bowls. Stir Parmesan
 cheese into bread crumbs. Dip chicken in flour mixture to coat
 both sides; shake off excess. Dip in milk, then in crumb mixture,
 patting to help coating adhere. Let stand 10 minutes.

 In a medium skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken
 in batches until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes, turning once. Drain
 on paper towels. Keep warm.

 Cook pasta according to package directions for al dente. Drain,
 reserving 1/2 cup cooking liquid. Meanwhile, in a large skillet,
 cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove to paper towels to
 drain. Discard drippings, reserving 1 tb in pan. Add garlic and
 cream to pan with bacon drippings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat;
 simmer, uncovered, until reduced by half, 6 to 8 minutes. Crumble
 bacon.

 Add butter, Parmesan cheese, bacon, parsley, and salt to skillet
 with reduced cream mixture. Stir in milk and enough reserved pasta
 water to reach desired consistency. Stir in shrimp; heat through.
 Add pasta and red pepper strips; toss to coat. Gently fold in
 chicken. If desired, serve with additional Parmesan cheese and
 parsley.
