1. Boil the pasta.
2. After ten minutes, break the broccoli head into small florets and add it to the pasta pot.
3. Bubble on a low heat until about 90% cooked.
4. In the meantime, chop your onion and garlic and fry in an oiled pan over a medium flame.
5. Chop the chicken breasts into small bits and add it to the pan, stirring every so often until the chicken is sealed.
6. Add the white wine to the chicken pan and simmer for a minute before adding the stock.
7. Allow the sauce to reduce to about 2/3 before adding the cream and heating through.
8. Season with herbs, salt and pepper.
9. Drain the pasta and broccoli quickly and add it to the chicken pan.
10. Stir to coat the pasta and allow the sauce to reduce a little more (for about five minutes).
11. Slice your bell pepper in half, and then, keeping the halves separate, into teeny tiny chunks.
12. Layer half of the pasta mixture into a deep oven dish and lattice four strips of bacon over the top.
13. Sprinkle with half of the bell pepper.
14. Repeat the layers, using more bacon to cover the top of the bake.
15. Sprinkle with the bell pepper, crushed tortilla chips or crisps, and grated cheese.
16. Bake in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius (390 degrees Fahrenheit) for 15 minutes and serve.
