This is my family's favorite dish that I make. And it is sooo easy! It is enough for 6 adults. Or 2 adults and 2 kids, with more than enough to have for dinner the next night, and then lunch for 2 kids the next day. It's also good if you leave out the chicken. Ingredients:
1 box penne pasta (use barilla brand!) |
1 1/2 lbs boneless chicken breasts |
2 jars classico alfredo with sun dried tomatoes |
1 box chopped frozen spinach |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced italian tomatoes |
salt and pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Thaw spinach completely in a colander lined with a few paper towels.
2. This may take a few hours.
3. Squeeze spinach completely dry.
4. Set aside.
5. Cut up chicken into bite size pieces.
6. Brown in a skillet.
7. Keep warm.
8. Cook penne according to package.
9. Meanwhile, in a medium sauce pan, add both jars of sauce, tomato and spinach.
10. Bring to a simmer on low heat, stirring occasionally.
11. Continue simmering for 10 minutes or so.
12. When pasta is done, drain and place in a large serving bowl.
13. Add chicken and stir.
14. Add Alfredo mixture and stir again.
15. Serve right away with garlic bread.
