Pasta With Chicken and Roasted Red Pepper Cream Sauce

"This is a Buitoni recipe, slightly adapted, that is quick in preparation due to prepared ingredients. Of course, you could always use your homemade cream sauce but if in a pinch for time, this will work wonders."

  1. Don't people actually cook anymore?? Everything is jarred or already cooked. Horrible
     
  2. A fantastic way to use up leftover chicken. I sprinkled the dish with some basil and next time will probably add some garlic, just because we love it. Thank you.
     
  3. This was good but could have used a bit more flavor. Thank you for the easy recipe.
     
  4. Like I tell my kids...try it, you'll like it and even if you don't, you'll still love it. Made for Alphabet Soup Tag.
     
  5. This was so good and easy too! I loved it! I am allergic to tomatoes so this was a great substitute for the normal red sauce recipes. I added mushrooms and it was fantastic. I also used Ragu's low fat alfredo sauce and it worked fine. Thank you so much! This is a keeper for sure!

I've always been inspired by gourmet cooking but hate the time and huge ingredient lists required so I'm continually on the lookout for recipes which are quick and easy to make but taste gourmet. And I love anything that can be made-ahead so that when it's dinner time, I can relax. Being that I'm not so great at creating my own recipes, this site is perfect for me -- and has finally helped to limit my cookbook buying!
