Cheesy Chicken Pasta
Ingredients:
1 red pepper
3 celery stalks
1 onion
3 garlic cloves
2 chicken breasts
1 can chopped tomatoes
1 can tomato paste
olive oil
seasonings: salt, pepper, oregano, basil, parsley
2 cups cheese (mozzarella, Brie, Parmesan)
Methods:
1. Slice the red pepper, onion & celery. Chop the garlic or use a garlic press. Fry together in a little bit of olive oil on medium heat - season as desired.
Remove from the pan once the veggies start looking a little soft - about 5 minutes.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNyOpsVyf8SJ8Vxy79jCp3s90-1AdLEfal0bqFM6LYDlR7Kd4tkiLLBsyTiPyy2WBkzghIGBYV4tvsktSMoH4Uju_tGj1uHzgkLlgeBMWsZ8QLwX1_D5R1A5MH-snJEm5L-Zl57SRXkNs/s400/DSC03265+(Large).JPG)
2. Chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Season. Fry on medium-high heat until brown & cooked through.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_DY0EnzjAx8Nv7z_Sj89XtewG76v9UKllrg7D93X4-qIIB7X0fRukbup_GaVeVI1jl_nFAZjYg_nY49yxtcov7QqDgGMw524KX3v2z5bGW28v2ewRBwp8eg5vRPm2BK-d2gZNFhG6O7k/s400/DSC03281+(Large).JPG)
3. Meanwhile, start a large pot of water to boil. Cook around 4 servings of your favourite spaghetti/spaghettini/linguine until al dente. I used capellini - the skinny noodles gave the dish a nice texture.
4. Add the veggies to the chicken. Add in the tomatoes & tomato paste. Simmer on medium for about 15 minutes.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhd6QfZ2ZSpUSU6-sNrE4xUX07nAeDwkWstEpLa2RtNGebQi1zAxxkxw7b6NAUSB7hmsybt1zA2urjmumy1Ff0PkKsTadAFAAiUL7ZYMbhUHLuWMW8EeCC8cy7cSxSJscVO75hXHa098Ek/s400/DSC03306+(Large).JPG)
5. Grate the cheese (cut Brie into small cubes).
6. Stir in the cooked & drained pasta. Serve immediately.
