How To Make southwest chicken pasta

  • Step 1
    Dice up tomatoes, set aside. Dice up the chicken breasts, set aside. Peel and mince garlic cloves, set aside. Wash cilantro, chop and set aside. Start water boiling in a large stew pot. Put in noodles.
  • Step 2
    Saute garlic in butter and a bit of olive oil. Add chicken, salt and pepper to taste, slightly undercook the chicken as it will be in a bit longer. Now add the chicken broth, chilies, and tomatoes. Cook just for a minute or two so the tomatoes are warm, but not mushy, ditto on the chilies. Take off the stove.
  • Step 3
    Drain linguini noodles. Add the first pan of ingredients, throw in diced cilantro, lightly mix up entire pot. Serve with crumbled feta cheese over the top -- heavy on the cheese!
  • Step 4
    You'll find this is so speedy and delicious, you'll be making this for special dinners. We think this is a drop dead killer dinner. PS serve with libations like Coronas and a slice of lime. sooooo yuuummmmmyyy!
