Recipe:
Cook Bacon First
You can cook your Blue Danube bacon in the same skillet as your spaghetti (beforehand), but I always prefer to cook my Bacon in the oven!
To cook on the skillet, heat skillet on Medium height with Olive Oil. Lay down strips of Bacon flat in the skillet. Cook them for a few minutes - turning halfway - or until they are crispy. Take Bacon out and lay on paper towel to absorb oils.
To cook Bacon in the oven, pre-heat the oven to 375 F and line baking sheets with aluminum foil.
Lay out bacon strips flat on baking sheets
Cook for approx 15 minutes - flipping halfway - or until the Bacon is crispy. You don’t want to overcook your Bacon, so less is always better than more!
Take Bacon out and lay on paper towel to absorb oils.
Once cooled, cut Bacon up into small pieces.
Cook Spaghetti & Sauce
Pre-heat your skillet on medium heat with Olive Oil, Butter and Minced Garlic
Stir in your Chicken Broth, Milk, Spaghetti Noodles, Blue Danube Homemade Granulated Garlic Powder, Salt, Pepper and Blue Danube Sweet Paprika
Bring to a boil
Once boiling, reduce your skillet to Medium height and simmer while stirring occasionally. Simmer until the liquid cooks up and the noodles are soft.
