Ingredients:

Serving

2 (12 oz) packages bow tie pasta
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts , cut into 1-inch strips
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided
2 bunches green onions, chopped
2 medium green peppers, chopped
2 medium sweet red peppers, chopped
1 (14 1/2 oz) can reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 (10 3/4 oz) cans condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
1 (10 3/4 oz) can condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
3/4 cup 2% low-fat milk
2 1/2 tsp cajun seasoning
1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
2 cups shredded colby-monterey jack cheese

Directions:

Cook pasta according to package directions to al dente.
Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, saute chicken in 1 tablespoon oil until juices run clear. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. In the same pan, saute onions and peppers in remaining oil until tender. Add the broth, soups, milk, Cajun seasoning and garlic powder. Bring to a boil and remove from the heat.
Drain pasta. Add pasta and chicken to soup mixture; toss to coat. Divide between two greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dishes. Sprinkle with cheese. Cover and freeze one casserole for up to 3 months. Cover and bake the remaining casserole at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until bubbly.
To use frozen casserole: Thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Cover and bake at 350° for 55-60 minutes or until bubbly.
