Italian chicken penne

Updated:

Recipe from Alyssa Downing of Henderson, Texas

Prep Time: less than 30 minutes
Total Time: less than 1 hour

2 cups penne noodles
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 can all white chicken breast
1/4 cup Italian or light Italian dressing
2 tsp Tony's Creole Seasoning

  1. Fill a pot with water and add olive oil.
  2. While water is coming to a boil, drain the can of chicken and lightly cook with Tony's Creole in another pan (using a microwave cooks it too much, too fast and I found that it steals some of the flavor).
  3. Make sure to "shred" the chicken to small "string" pieces.
  4. Add raw Penne noodles to the boiling water and cook to al dente.
  5. Drain the noodles and return them to the pan, adding the Italian Dressing and chicken on low heat.
  6. Stir until all ingredients are warm.
  7. Serve topped with any cheese and/or parsley for flavor.

Servings: Serves 2-5 people

    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse
    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse of a dessert. Quick and easy, with no ice cream maker needed, this dessert may be served as a chilled mousse or frozen completely as a "gelato."

    Celebrate warm weather with nature's sweet berries. Simply served with a light dusting of powdered sugar, this dessert is not a sugar overload, because it relies on the natural sweetness of in-season berries.

    Here is smoky and slightly spicy twist on fried catfish. Instead of coating the catfish in a thick beer batter, I marinate the raw pieces in beer before seasoning them and lightly dredging them in flour
