Cajun Chicken Soup - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 skinless chicken breasts, chopped
    1 onion, chopped
    1 -2 jalapeno, chopped (remove the seeds, unless you like it really hot!!)
    16 ounces mushrooms, sliced thickly
    2 green peppers, chopped
    1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
    1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
    1 (10 ounce) can rotel
    2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
    1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
    1 (16 ounce) box pasta (any kind)
    nonstick cooking spray
    cayenne pepper
    garlic powder
    salt and pepper
Preparation
    1. Cook chicken in large skillet with non-stick spray. Season with cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. While chicken is cooking, in a separate pot, cook pasta. (reserve cooking liquid).
    2. Once chicken is halfway cooked, add onion, green peppers, jalepenos, and mushrooms. Let cook about 3-5 minute
    3. Add corn, beans, rotel, tomato sauce, tomato paste. Heat through.
    4. At this point I transferred this to a good sized pot because I didn't have enough room left in my skillet. Then add pasta and 4 cups of the cooking liquid. Stir it all together and let simmer 15-20 minute This let's the flavors \"marry\" The longer you simmer the more the flavors incorporate into the pasta.
    Serves 10 Serving is 2 cups.
