Dairy-Free Chicken Florentine Pasta

1 . Stage

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.

2 . Stage

At the same time, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and chop when cool enough to handle. Drain pasta.

3 . Stage

While the bacon is cooking, heat olive oil in another skillet over medium heat. Add chicken, seasoned salt, and cayenne pepper, then stir in onion and garlic. Cook and stir for 5 minutes. Add sun-dried tomatoes; cook and stir until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 3 to 5 minutes.

4 . Stage

Add vegan cheese, coconut milk, chicken broth, and vegan sour cream. Mix well, cover, and cook until sauce begins to thicken, 3 to 5 minutes. Add spinach and bacon and cook, stirring continually, until sauce reaches desired consistency.

5 . Stage

Serve over penne.
