Creamy Chicken and Broccoli Pasta

This pasta dish is yummy! It is also fairly easy to make, and is perfect for a easy clean-up because it is a one skillet recipe. What could be any better than that? A yummy dinner with only one skillet to clean-up!

Creamy Chicken and Broccoli Pasta
Delicious, Fast Clean-Up and Perfect for Warm-up's

12-ounce box of Mueller's Bowties
3 tablespoons olive oil
1-pound boneless, skinless chicken breast; cut into thin strips
Salt and pepper; if desired
3 cups broccoli florets (I used frozen)
2 small red bell pepper (I had green on hand); cut into thin strips
1 can chicken broth (I dissolved 2 packets of chicken bouillon in 14-ounces of warm water)
1 container of President Rondele Gourmet Spreadable Cheese Garlic and Herbs
  1. Cook and drain Bowties according to package directions
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat
  3. Add chicken (I salted and peppered the chicken). Cook and stir 3-5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and lightly brown
  4. Remove chicken and add broccoli, red peppers, and chicken broth. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, 5-7 minutes or until broccoli and peppers are tender
  5. Return chicken to skillet and cook 1 minute longer. Remove from heat
  6. Add cheese then pasta combining gently until cheese is melted and smooth
  7. Serve immediately
