Cheesy Chicken Pasta Recipe


Cheesy Chicken Pasta Recipe
I found a recipe that was close to what I was looking for and recreated it to suit me. It turned out great and the family loved it. I'll see if I can recreate on paper for you.

Ingredients
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into bite size pieces)
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped (or substitute with regular onion of your choice)
  • 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (fresh minced garlic would be even better)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons apple juice, divided
  • 16 oz. cream cheese, cubed**
  • 1 cup milk**
  • pasta of your choice, cooked according to package directions (I used the whole bag of rotini because that's what I had on hand)
  • Parmesan or Asagio cheese (I used asagio)
  • **The original recipe called for 8 oz. cream cheese and 1/2 cup milk, but my family thought it needed more sauce, so I doubled the amounts).

Directions
  1. In a large skillet, cook the chicken, vegetables, Italian seasoning and garlic powder in butter over medium heat until chicken is fully cooked, stirring occasionally. Add 1-1/2 tablespoons of apple juice and simmer 5 minutes
  2. In a medium saucepan, stir together the cream cheese, milk and remaining 1-1/2 tablespoons of apple juice until cheese is entirely melted. Pour the cheese mixture over the chichken mixture and mix thoroughly.
  3. Put the cooked pasta on a platter and pour the chicken/cheese mixture over the top. Sprinkle with grated parmesan/asagio and serve. Enjoy.

That sounds really tasty - love the creaminess of the cream cheese with the parmesan or asiago. Printed and I will try it soon...we eat a lot of chicken, so I am always trying new sauces - thanks for sharing yours!
