Instructions:

1. Cook the Bacon:

1. In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

2. Cook the Chicken:

1. Add the diced chicken to the skillet with the bacon fat.

2. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

3. Cook the chicken for about 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it's fully cooked and lightly browned.

3. Add Sweet Potato Noodles:

1. Add the sweet potato noodles to the skillet with the chicken.

2. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 4-5 minutes, until the sweet potato noodles are tender but still have a bit of bite.

4. Combine with Buffalo Sauce:

1. Pour the buffalo sauce over the chicken and sweet potato noodles, tossing everything to coat evenly.

2. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

5. Add Bacon and Serve:

1. Stir the crispy bacon back into the skillet.

2. Drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing, if desired, and garnish with fresh parsley.

Tips:

For a healthier version, use turkey bacon or omit the bacon entirely.

You can add extra veggies like spinach, bell peppers, or onions to the skillet for more flavor and nutrients.

Adjust the buffalo sauce to your preferred spice level, adding more or less depending on your tolerance.
