- While pasta is cooking, fry bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels then cut or crumble in small pieces.
- Add hot pasta to dressing in the bowl and toss to mix and coat thoroughly.
- Tear chicken in bite-size pieces and add to the salad with bacon, lettuce pieces and chopped tomato. Toss gently to mix.
