Garlic Chicken Farfalle

A fantastic recipe found on Becky Higgin's website. We
tried it out tonight with company and loved it!! Feeds 6-8
good portions.  This recipe has been changed from Becky's
to my families preferences!

16 oz. Farfalle pasta
1 c. heavy whipping cream
3 chicken breasts or about 1 ½ lbs. (boneless, skinless)
2 to 3 cloves garlic, crushed OR some garlic salt
½ tsp. pepper (or more if you like)
½ cup butter
½ lb. bacon in little pieces
½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 (12 oz) Lawry’s mesquite marinade with lime juice

Cook chicken and bottle of marinade in crock pot on low
for 4-5 hours or high for 3 and low for about an hour (time
depends on size of crockpot).
It's done when it can be shredded well with 2 forks.
Pull chicken out of the juices, allow to cool a bit, and shred.
Set this aside. About a half-hour before serving, cook the
pasta and bacon. In a small saucepan, melt butter,add garlic,
whipping cream, pepper and parmesan. Whisk together on
low heat for 3-4 minutes. In a large bowl, pour over pasta,
add chicken and bacon and stir well. Sprinkle a little bit
more parmesan on top.

Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large pot on medium heat. You want to heat to about 350 degrees, so we used a candy thermometer to monitor the temp. Prepare the toppings. Note - For the toppings, we didn't actually measure any of the ingredients, just eyeballed it. But this is about how much we used. Glaze: 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1 Tbsp milk (add more to thin as necessary) Whisk together, set aside.

Click on the picture to see a perfectly readable recipe with a bonus Pink Cloud shake recipe!!  Do you have vanilla ice cream but no chocolate?  Improvise by adding Nesquik powder or any chocolate syrup. This came out of an old Better Homes and Garden magazine my mom bought from the library and I just scanned the page .  I wanted to share it because I thought it was cute--maybe from the 90's?   We've had this shake a lot and even put it in H Kindergarten Cookbook.
