Step-by-Step Instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions until al dente, then drain, rinse briefly under cool water, and set aside to cool.

Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving a thin layer of bacon drippings in the skillet.

Cut the chicken breasts into large bite-size pieces. Season with oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, then cook in the skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let cool slightly.
