Instructions

  1. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. Season chicken with half of the Seasoning Mix. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet and cook chicken until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  3. Add remaining oil, bell pepper and onion. Sauté until tender. Remove and set aside.
  4. Melt butter in the same skillet. Add garlic and tomato paste and cook for about 1 minute. Stir in heavy cream, chicken broth and remaining Seasoning Mix. Reduce heat and stir in Monterey Jack and cheddar until melted and creamy.
  5. Add pasta, chicken, peppers and onions back to the skillet; stir until combined. Top with Parmesan, parsley and red pepper flakes, if desired. So good, y’all!

Tips:

  • Keep the sauce a little extra creamy because the pasta will soak it up as it sits.
  • Substitute a Mexican blend cheese for the Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheese.
