Add Step-by-Step Photos	Boofie / All my dishes 9 months ago A baked pasta dish with all the flavors of my Michael's favorite--buffalo chicken. He doesn't like bleu cheese, so I use ranch dressing. You could definitely swap the ranch out though if you and your family DO enjoy bleu cheese. Nutritional inform... More Prep:15m Cook:15m Servings:8	Boofie

Ingredients

1lb cooked penne pasta

1lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed

2 small carrots, peeled and grated

1 small red onion, sliced thin

1 cup celery, diced

3/4 cup light sour cream

3/4 cup prepared light ranch dressing

1/2 cup Franks red hot sauce, or your favorite hot sauce

1-1.5 cups shredded swiss, provolone, cheddar, whatever you like

1/2 cup bread crumbs

No stick spray

Olive oil

Salt and pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 375.

Prepare pasta according to packaging's directions. Drain and set aside.

Meanwhile, heat about a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken 3-4 minutes, or until it is nearly done.

Add chopped vegetables and continue cooking another couple minutes until chicken is done and veggies are desired level of doneness (I like to leave mine pretty crunchy). Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Combine sour cream, ranch dressing, and Franks red hot sauce in a bowl. Toss chicken and vegetables with pasta. Add sauce and toss again to coat well. Transfer pasta mixture to a 13x9" casserole lightly hit with no stick spray.

Top casserole with shredded cheese and bread crumbs. Bake 10-15 minutes or until heated through. Place under broiler last couple minutes if you like your cheese browned and bubbly like I do.

Enjoy!
