Chicken Enchilda Pasta Recipe


Chicken Enchilda Pasta Recipe
This is my version of the Semolina pasta dish. It is easy to make if you buy a precooked (roasted) chicken from the deli at your favorite grocery. Just don't do like I did, and start the oil heating and walk away. I almost burned my house down!
