"MAKE THAT CHICKEN DANCE" SALSA PASTA



I made this up the other night after I started to make Mirjam's Penne Arrabiatta (#22941) but discovered I was missing a few ingredients. Like the Italian dish I meant to make, this one is also spicy and loaded with garlic. I'm sure it would be even more flavourful with fresh herbs, but dried ones were all I had on hand.

Provided by Sackville

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 30m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 -5 fresh and juicy tomatoes, chopped (preferrably vine-ripened)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, chopped
3 -4 large button mushrooms, sliced
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried basil
1 tablespoon fresh parsley
1/8 cup water
1/4 cup of your favourite cooked salsa
1 chicken breasts, cooked and diced or 1 cup quorn pieces (vegetarian substitute)
2 teaspoons olive oil
fresh ground black pepper
parmesan cheese
pasta

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a frying pan and sauté the onions and mushrooms until soft, about two minutes.
  • Add the water, tomatoes (with all their seeds and juice), garlic, oregano, basil, parsley and hot sauce.
  • Simmer over low heat for 6-10 minutes or until tomatoes are soft and enough water has evaporated to form a relatively thick sauce.
  • Add salsa and chicken.
  • Simmer until heated through.
  • Cook pasta of your choice (I like fusilli or penne) until al dente.
  • Serve sauce over hot pasta, top with parmesan cheese and freshly ground black pepper.

EASY-CHEESY SALSA CHICKEN



Easy-Cheesy Salsa Chicken image

This is such a simple dish to make. No measuring needed. Just add the ingredients to your liking. I have made this with Spanish Rice before and it is great, or just plain rice works too. Refried Beans, complete the menu.

Provided by Becky in Wisconsin

Categories     Chicken

Time 55m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
olive oil, enough to brown the chicken in
salsa, I use Pace, but whatever your favorite is will work
shredded cheddar cheese, for topping (Monterey Jack works well too, so would Pepper Jack)

Steps:

  • Flatten Chicken Breasts so they are of equal thickness for even cooking.
  • In stir-fry skillet or any deep frying pan (with lid), heat your Olive Oil.
  • Add the Chicken Breasts and brown on both sides until no longer pink inside.
  • Pour over salsa to your liking. I use about a half a 16 oz. jar. I also add a little water to tone down the heat, (hubby can't handle spice).
  • Cover and simmer chicken in salsa for about half-hour to 45 minutes.
  • Top with cheese to serve.
