CHICKEN & PASTA CON QUESO



Chicken & Pasta con Queso image

I made this in huge amounts for my son's rehearsal dinner and everyone loved it. A relative of the bride told me it was the best thing he had ever eaten in his life! My family frequently requests this for dinner - it is so easy and so tasty. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

2 c cooked penne pasta
2 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless, cut into bite-size pieces
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can(s) cream of chicken soup
2 1/2 c cheddar cheese, shredded
1 tomato, diced
1/2 c sour cream

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 13 x 9 pan with a coating of nonstick spray.
  • 2. Cook chicken, peppers and onion with salt, pepper, garlic powder and cumin according to your taste and cook on medium heat in a nonstick frying pan until the chicken is no longer pink but not overcooked. Remove from heat. Don't drain off any liquid.

QUESO CHICKEN PASTA RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Queso Chicken Pasta Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by á-170995

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 ounces penne pasta
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 cup onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 jalapeno, minced
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon coriander
1 tablespoon flour
1 1/3 cup milk, 2% or higher
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons cream cheese
6 ounces colby-jack cheese, divided
1/2 cup drained Ro*Tel tomatoes
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 F and spray a medium casserole dish with non-stick spray. Cook the pasta according to the package directions, but reduce the cooking time by two minutes. In a medium pot heat the oil over medium heat. Once it begins to shimmer add the onion, garlic and peppers. Cook until they begin to soften, about three minutes. Add the cumin, coriander and salt and cook for an additional two minutes, or until the spices become fragrant. Add the flour and cook for three minutes, stirring constantly, until all the flour is moist. Gradually whisk in the milk and stir until smooth. Bring the mixture to a simmer and allow to thicken. Turn off the heat and add the cream cheese and 4 ounces of the shredded cheese and whisk until melted. Stir in the Ro*Tel tomatoes. Pour the pasta into the prepared casserole dish, stir in the shredded chicken and sauce. Top with the remaining shredded cheese. Bake 20 to 30 minutes, or until the pasta is bubbly and the cheese has melted. Let stand five minutes before serving.
