Stashcook

This is a yummy pasta dish with chicken, spinach, and sun-dried tomatoes. You cook pasta and mix it with chicken, veggies, and a creamy sauce. It's a warm, filling meal for dinner.

Ingredients

1 crown broccoli
8 oz penne pasta
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1 lb chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 yellow bell pepper
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup fresh spinach leaves

Method

1
Fill a medium pot with water, add a pinch of salt, and bring to a boil. Add the penne pasta and cook for 10 minutes or until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2
While the pasta is cooking, wash and dry the broccoli and spinach. Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets and the spinach into strips.
3
In a bowl, toss the chicken pieces with salt and pepper.
4
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned and no longer pink inside, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
5
In the same skillet, add the broccoli and sliced yellow bell pepper. Cook for about 4 minutes, until vegetables are tender-crisp.
6
Sprinkle the vegetables with flour and stir to coat. Cook for 1 minute.
7
Slowly add the heavy cream to the skillet, stirring continuously. Cook for another 4-5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
8
Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and spinach, cooking until the spinach wilts, about 2 minutes.
9
Return the chicken to the skillet and add the cooked penne pasta. Toss everything together and heat through.
10
Serve the creamy chicken penne hot, divided between plates or bowls.
