Method

7 steps

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Grease a baking dish with oil.
Boil the pasta in salted water until al dente, then drain.
In a large pot, melt the butter, add the chopped bell peppers and bacon, and sauté for 4 minutes. Add the chopped green onion and cook for another minute.
Stir in the flour, chili powder, and cumin, and cook for 1 minute.
Gradually pour in the milk, stirring constantly, and cook until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
Remove the sauce from the heat, add most of the grated cheese, chopped parsley, cooked pasta, and sliced chicken fillet.
Transfer the mixture to the baking dish, sprinkle with the remaining cheese, and bake for 10-15 minutes until a golden crust forms.
