Instructions

1
Chop the bacon and cook in a large Dutch oven over medium heat until crisp, about 6 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon, leaving the fat.
2
Cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces, season with salt and pepper, and sear in the bacon fat until golden, 5 minutes.
3
Stir in the minced garlic, then add the penne, chicken stock, and heavy cream. Bring to a boil.
4
Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender, 12 minutes.
5
Off the heat, stir in the ranch dressing and cheddar until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
6
Top with the crispy bacon and sliced scallions and serve.
