So…I was going to post about a blueberry jam I’ve been wanting to make – well… let’s save that for another time.
As you can see by today’s post title, I’ve got a chicken and pasta recipe for you to try – a REALLY good chicken and pasta recipe. Once again, it came from that little magazine that Kroger sends me every month or so. (Love it!) www.kroger.com
For me, I like this dish for a number of reasons. First, it is a nice change from the traditional red sauce and ground beef I usually serve with spaghetti. Second, the avocado pairs nicely with the chicken and pasta. Third, with the summer heat it’s nice not to have the stove on too long preparing a meal. Lastly, it is refreshing to find a recipe that doesn’t smother the pasta in cheese. (Says the girl who’s allergic to dairy. lol)
The recipe is below, in two different pictures. The first image shows the ingredients for the Blackened Seasoning & I also wrote in how much chicken I use. The second image shows the prep & cooking instructions. I’ve done this with the two pictures, because, I’m not sure how well everyone can read the recipes when I post pictures of them. I’m not sure if everyone is able to zoom in on them, so I’m hoping this may be helpful.
Below the recipe I have a few notes on the minor changes I made to the recipe. After my commentary, I have posted a picture of my finished product.
As I said, I only have a few minor changes:
The recipe says it’s for four people. I made mine to feed six.
I don’t know what “smoked paprika” is or where to buy it, so I use just “paprika”.
Instead of whole wheat pasta I use gluten free pasta. (My two go-to’s are Barilla or Ronzoni. I use either spaghetti or fettucini.) They don’t mention how much pasta to prepare. That will be based on the number of people you will be feeding.
I don’t add the corn. After Bradley was diagnosed with his corn allergy, we essentially cut corn out of our lives. Feel free to add it if you like.
That’s it, other than that I follow the recipe to the letter.
Thanks for stopping!
