Penne with Spicy Chicken Alfredo

Ok here is the yummy recipe for my Spicy Chicken Alfredo! It's super simple too! I usually just pair it with a salad and good glass of wine!!

Penne with Spicy Chicken Alfredo

8oz whole wheat penne
1 jar Alfredo sauce (I usually use Bertolli)
I can diced tomatoes with basil, garlic, and oregano
1 TBSP Italian Seasoning
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes ( I just shake and shake until I think it's spicy enough!)
cooked chicken, cut up (usually 1-2 breasts)
1 can sliced black olives, drained
shredded parmesan cheese for topping

1. Cook pasta according to pkg directions. Drain, return to pot, cover.
2. Meanwhile in med. saucepan, combine alfredo sauce, tomatoes, italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, olives, and cooked chicken over med heat. Bring to a simmer, cook 10 mins.
3. Serve hot over cooked pasta, top with parmesan cheese.

Here are some pics!!

Served with a salad! Very easy and I always have leftovers for lunch or dinner the next day!!

    Yummy. That sounds good. I usually don't do alfredo sauce, but I like the idea of throwning in some olives. I'll have to give it a try....with lot's of red pepper flakes. Bring on the heat.
