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.
