Pinterest Night: Chicken Confetti Pasta

For Pinterest Night this week, I chose to make Chicken Confetti Pasta. 

I followed the recipe, with the exception of adding mushrooms and carrots to the list of vegetables.

I also used a different type of pasta than the recipe called for. I chose to use Caserecci...which is to die for.

Everything else was the same.

This recipe was pinned from the site bakecakery.com and it is completely delicious.
Not partially. COMPLETELY.

5 STARS.


A look at the process.

I HATE the look of meat while it's cooking...but since it's part of the "process" - I will include it. 
Ew. Pink Chicken. Shivers.


I started cooking the pasta while i prepped the veggies.








 The sauteing began in the order specified.

 

It was so beautiful when all of the vegetables were combined.


The vegetables were added to the bowl of cooked chicken to socialize while the cream sauce was made.


The sauce. Oh my goodness. 


The red pepper flakes simmered in the sauce and then the cheese was added to thicken things up.
I chose to combine Asiago and Parmesan, instead of the feta.
I guess I didn't follow the recipe as much as I thought I did...but who can go wrong with this cheese combo in a cream sauce?

Let me answer that for you. No one.

I tossed the cream sauce with the pasta to ensure everything the noodles were coated and then tossed in the chicken/vegetable mixture.
It was gorgeous.


I threw a green salad on the side and voila! 

Dinner was served.



This recipe is a keeper!
