Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
- Add 2 1/2 tsp of salt and penne to the boiling water. Cook according to package directions.
- Sprinkle the chicken with the remaining 1/2 tsp of salt and the oregano.
- Cut the chicken across the short side to create strips.
- Heat the olive oil in a wide skillet over high heat.
- When the oil is hot, add the chicken.
- Spread it out into a single layer.
- Then add the sliced peppers.
- Cook without stirring for about 5 min - you would like the chicken to brown a little bit. If it seems as if it will burn, stir it.
- Add the salsa, stir and cook for about 5 more min or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Remove the skillet from the heat.
- Stir in the sour cream.
- Spoon cooked penne into a serving bowl or onto plates.
- Top with the chicken mixture.
- Sprinkle with chopped cilantro, if desired, and a little of the shredded cheese.
