Time 45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon cooking oil
2 chicken breasts, sliced into strips
2 tablespoons Tasty™ Fiery seasoning mix
½ yellow bell pepper, seeded and sliced
½ orange bell pepper, seeded and sliced
½ medium red onion, sliced
1 ½ cups fresh spinach
3 cups whole milk
½ lb rotini pasta
½ cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
¼ cup parmesan cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large pot over high heat. Add chicken and 2 tablespoons Tasty™ Fiery Seasoning Mix and stir to coat. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink, 5-6 minutes, then remove from the pot.
  • Add the yellow and orange bell peppers, and red onion to the pot and toss well to combine. Cook until the onion is translucent, 5-7 minutes.
  • Return the chicken to the pot with the milk and pasta. Be sure to stir occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking together. Cook for about 20 minutes, until the pasta is al dente and the liquid has reduced to a thick sauce that coats the pasta.

  • Serve warm.
  • Enjoy!

SOLO CHICKEN BREAST AND BELL PEPPER



Solo Chicken Breast and Bell Pepper image

Consider chicken breasts as blank canvas, much in the same way as you might use rice. It does not have an intrusive taste of it's own, but white chicken meat provides a nutritious, inexpensive source of protein to use as a base on which you can build a variety of interesting meals. Here is a quick meal for one that requires only one skillet and a second pan to make the rice or pasta.
