1
Boil the mini bow tie pasta in a large pot of salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Set aside.
2
In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon pieces until they are golden and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon and set it aside.
3
In the same skillet with the rendered bacon fat, add the finely chopped onion and diced carrots. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the onions are translucent and the carrots are tender.
4
Pour in the low-sodium chicken stock and bring the mixture to a boil. Add the green peas, and cook them for 2 minutes.
5
Reduce the heat to low, then stir in the chopped fresh thyme, salt, freshly ground black pepper, grated parmesan cheese, and low-fat milk. Stir until the cheese has fully melted and formed a smooth sauce.
6
Add the cooked mini bow tie pasta to the skillet. Toss to fully coat the pasta in the sauce.
7
Sprinkle the cooked crispy bacon over the pasta. Mix well to combine and further heat for about 2 minutes.
8
Serve your fancy bow tie pasta hot, garnished with extra parmesan cheese or fresh herbs if desired.
