- Melt 4 tbsp butter over medium low heat and whisk in flour, sea salt, and black pepper until smooth and bubbly.
- Whisk in milk and heavy cream and raise heat to medium high. Whisk constantly until mixture thickens and simmer for 1 minute.
- Reduce heat and add parmesan cheese, chicken, broccoli, roasted peppers, and bacon.
- Once cheese is melted, toss over noodles and serve!
