Chicken and Bow Tie Pasta
Prep: 10 min., Cook: 30 min. Cooking the pasta in the same water that the
chicken was cooked in gives the noodles extra flavor--and using just one
pot
makes for easy cleanup.
1 quart water
4 skinned and boned chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
8 ounces uncooked bow tie pasta
1 cup chicken broth
1 celery rib, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1 small onion, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1 (10 3/4-ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
1 (8-ounce) package pasteurized prepared cheese product, cubed
Garnish: chopped fresh parsley
Bring 1 quart salted water to a boil in a Dutch oven. Add chicken, and
cook
12 minutes or until done. Remove chicken from water with a slotted spoon.
Add
pasta to water in Dutch oven, and cook 10 minutes or until tender; drain.
Keep warm.
Heat 1/4 cup broth over medium-high heat in a Dutch oven; add celery and
onion, and cook 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in chicken, soup, cheese,
and
remaining 3/4 cup chicken broth, stirring until cheese is melted. Toss
with
pasta; garnish, if desired. Serve immediately.
Yield: Makes 4 servings
