Southwest Fettucine

>> Thursday, June 10, 2010

I've got two versions of this one. Both are yummy!


Expensive, but super quick version:

1 pkg. refrigerated fettuccine noodles
1 can diced tomatoes w/ green chiles
1 pkg. frozen southwest chicken strips, thawed (or two pkgs of the refrigerated kind)
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 c. shredded monterrey jack cheese
1 small can sliced olives

Cook noodles as directed, drain. In a large skillet, sautee the green bell peppers until soft. Then combine noodles and peppers in large skillet with tomatoes and chicken. Toss in the olives and heat through. Sprinkle servings with cheese.

Cheap, but more time consuming version:

9 oz. (half a box) of dry fettuccine noodles
1 can diced tomatoes w/ green chiles
4 chicken breasts, cut into strips
2 tbl. olive oil
Chili powder- to taste

1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 c. shredded monterrey jack cheese
1 small can sliced olives


Cook noodles in a large saucepan. In a skillet to the side, cook the chicken with a bit of olive oil and coat chicken with chili powder to taste. Cook chicken all the way through, then toss in the green pepper to soften. When the noodles are done, drain and add to the chicken/peppers. Toss in the olives and sprinkle cheese on each serving.
