Instructions
Creating Loaded Bacon Cheeseburger Alfredo Pasta is easy when you follow these simple steps:
1. Cook Pasta: Boil a large pot of salted water and add the fettuccine. Cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Cook Bacon: In a large skillet over medium heat, add chopped bacon and cook until crispy. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels, leaving the grease in the skillet.
3. Brown Beef: In the same skillet with bacon grease, add the ground beef. Cook until browned and no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes.
4. Season Meat: Add garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
5. Add Cream: Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
6. Mix in Cheeses: Gradually add cheddar and Parmesan cheese while stirring constantly until melted and smooth.
7. Combine with Pasta: Toss in the cooked fettuccine and mix well until the pasta is fully coated with the creamy sauce.
8. Incorporate Bacon: Add the crispy bacon bits into the pasta, reserving a few for garnishing.
9. Serve Immediately: Garnish with chopped scallions and any reserved bacon bits before serving.
Each step delivers you closer to a delicious plate of Loaded Bacon Cheeseburger Alfredo Pasta filled with rich flavors and textures.
