Steps:
- Cook pasta according to package directions. Remove from heat. Drain and cover.
- While pasta is cooking, drizzle olive oil in a large skillet. Add chicken and sprinkle with salt, onion powder, black pepper, and garlic. Cook over medium-high heat until lightly pink.
- Stir in salsa, corn, green pepper, red pepper, black beans, red onion and 1 1/4 cup cheese. Bring to a boil and allow to simmer on medium-low heat for 5 minutes, or until chicken reaches 165 degrees F.
- Stir in pasta. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese and let stand for 5 minutes to allow sauce to thicken before serving.
"MAKE THAT CHICKEN DANCE" SALSA PASTA
I made this up the other night after I started to make Mirjam's Penne Arrabiatta (#22941) but discovered I was missing a few ingredients. Like the Italian dish I meant to make, this one is also spicy and loaded with garlic. I'm sure it would be even more flavourful with fresh herbs, but dried ones were all I had on hand.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a frying pan and sauté the onions and mushrooms until soft, about two minutes.
- Add the water, tomatoes (with all their seeds and juice), garlic, oregano, basil, parsley and hot sauce.
- Simmer over low heat for 6-10 minutes or until tomatoes are soft and enough water has evaporated to form a relatively thick sauce.
- Add salsa and chicken.
- Simmer until heated through.
- Cook pasta of your choice (I like fusilli or penne) until al dente.
- Serve sauce over hot pasta, top with parmesan cheese and freshly ground black pepper.

SALSA CHICKEN
Someone gave me this recipe a few years back and it's become a household favorite. You can use mild, medium or hot salsa depending on your taste. I usually serve it with Spanish rice and Mexican-style canned corn. Very easy and quick!
