Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon oil
2 chicken breasts, cut in to small pieces (about 1 1/4 pounds total)
3 tablespoons taco seasoning ((like McCormicks))
3 bell peppers, cut into thin strips
½ red onion, cut into thin strips
15 ounces chicken broth ((about two cups))
3 ½ cups water
1 16 ounce box whole grain penne pasta ((like Barrila))
8 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes ((regular or reduced fat) )
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup salsa ((whatever heat you prefer, I use mild))

Steps:

  • In a large dutch oven or pot, heat oil over medium high heat. Add in chicken and taco seasoning. Stir until coated and lightly brown, about 3 minutes. Add in the bell pepper and onion and stir for another 3 minutes until softened.
  • Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Pour in the water and bring to a boil. Add in the penne and cook according to package directions, about 9-10 minutes, until al dente.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the cream cheese, cheddar, and salsa until melted. Let sit 3-4 minutes before serving.
