Steps:
1. Combine Everything
In a large pan, add all the ingredients: pasta, minced bacon, shrimp, minced garlic, green onions, butter, salt, pepper, water, and milk. Stir everything together to combine.
2. Boil and Stir
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking or burning.

Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer. Continue stirring occasionally as the liquid reduces and the pasta absorbs the creamy sauce.
4. Serve and Enjoy
Remove the pan from heat, garnish with additional green onions if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy the rich, creamy goodness with minimal cleanup!
Pro Tips
-
Keep Stirring: To prevent the pasta from sticking and ensure even cooking, give it a stir every few minutes.
