    Serves 6

Ingredients

1/2 pound bacon, chopped
1/2 cup half and half
1/2 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
1 cup (about 4 ounces) freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
3 ounces Brie cheese, rind removed, thinly sliced
16 ounces fettuccine

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Cook bacon in heavy large skillet over medium heat until fat is rendered and bacon begins to brown, about 6 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer bacon to plate. Discard fat from skillet. Add half and half and chicken broth to same skillet and bring to boil over medium heat. Gradually add Parmesan and stir until cheese melts. Add pepper and bacon. Reduce heat to low and gradually add Brie, stirring until cheese melts.

    Step 2

    Meanwhile, cook fettuccine in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite. Drain well. Add fettuccine to sauce in skillet. Toss until coated with sauce. Divide fettuccine among plates and serve.
