Ingredients
- Pasta – I believe any type of pasta can do the magic here
- Chicken strips – preferably the breast which is boneless
- Seasoning – A combination of garlic powder or crushed garlic, paprika, salt, black pepper to add a bit of flavour
- Vegetable oil
- Spinach – gives the boost in vitamins and minerals (optional)
- Heavy cream – it gives the chicken pasta a creamy texture that is crave worthy
- Tomatoes – I prefer blended tomatoes to enhance the way chicken pasta loos.
- Parmesan cheese, shredded – It is flavorful in melted dishes such as soup and sauce recipes, it will add cream to this mixture.
