CHUNKY CHICKEN SAUCE FOR PASTA FOR 2



Chunky Chicken Sauce for Pasta for 2 image

This is a quick easy recipe start to finish 20 minutes using left over cooked chicken. I searched 15 pages of Zaar recipes but could not find what I wanted so I made this one up. If you like a thinner sauce add 1/2 cup water.

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/2 cups cooked chicken, cut into 3/4-inch chunks (use white dark chicken meat)

3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 small onions, chopped or 3 tablespoons dried onion flakes
1 teaspoon chili flakes (use more or less depending how hot you like it) or 3 tablespoons of your favorite hot sauce (the amount is up to your taste buds)

Steps:

  • Put all the ingredients in a pot , except the cheese & pasta, bring to a simmer.
