Steps:

• Slice chicken breasts into thin strips or small pieces. Dab with paper towel to dry.

• Add the peppers and onion to the chicken in the skillet. Toss and cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, until peppers are just starting to soften.
• Add chicken broth to the skillet and scrape the bottom with a wooden spoon to remove any bits that might have stuck on.
• Stir in the pasta and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cover, reduce to medium heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking for 5 minutes or until pasta is tender.
• Stir in cheese and salsa and allow to melt before serving.
