Creamy chicken bake

Britbrit13 — Sat, 23 Aug 2014 02:48:41 GMT

1 lb. bowtie pasta (or any kind of pasta would work!)
1-1 1/2 lbs. cooked chicken cubed (I just sauteed some while the noodles cooked)
1 onion, diced
1 1/2 tsp. minced garlic
4 Tbs. butter
1 cup half and half, room temperature
1 cup chicken broth
1 tsp. seasoned salt
12 oz jar roasted red peppers, I cut mine up and don't always use all of it!!
1 cup mozzarella, shredded

Cook the pasta according to the package directions. While it cooks, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook the onion and garlic till soft. Whisk in half and half and chicken broth. Stir in seasoned salt and mozzarella. Lower the heat to keep the sauce from boiling.

Add the chicken and red pepper slices to the sauce. Stir frequently and keep and eye on the heat so it doesn't boil. Drain the cooked pasta and stir it together with the sauce. Add chopped parsley or basil when serving. sprinkle some parm or more mozzarella shredded

Hey Brit, could I make this without the butter, half and half and cheese??

OK, just had to kid ya before someone else took over on ingredients! Sounds yummy, and I would certainly add extra cheese!

Hope all is OK with you and that you get feeling better!
