Chicken Riggies
Ingredients List
-
1 (16 ounce) package rigatoni pasta
-
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
-
1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut in bite-sized pieces
-
salt and ground black pepper to taste
-
1 onion, diced
-
2 Cubanelle peppers, seeded and thinly sliced
-
3 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
-
3 roasted red peppers, drained and chopped
-
2 hot cherry peppers, seeded and minced
-
½ cup heavy cream
-
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
-
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the rigatoni and cook until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
-
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, and cook until golden brown on all sides and fully cooked through, around 7 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.
-
Add onion, Cubanelle peppers, and garlic to the same pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens, around 4 minutes. Stir in crushed tomatoes, roasted red peppers, and hot cherry peppers. Bring to a simmer. Add the cooked chicken and stir in the heavy cream. Simmer for another 2 to 3 minutes.
-
Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and toss to combine. Serve garnished with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
