TabyanInn

This is another dish that Traci made for me while we were dating. With tons of flavors, it is just delicious. Our guests love it.

Ingredients:

• 2 chicken breasts, cut into 1” chunks
• 1 green bell pepper, chunked
• 1 yellow onion, small chunked
• 6-8 fresh mushrooms, thick sliced
• 4 oz. can sliced black olives
• 25 slices of pepperoni
• 24 oz. jar of marinara sauce, or 3 batches of TabyanInn marinara sauce
• 1 package of penne pasta
• 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
• 1 bottle Italian salad dressing
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Red pepper flakes
• Parmesan and/or mozzarella cheese, shredded

How To Make:

Place chicken chunks in a bowl or Ziploc bag, and cover with the Italian dressing. Marinate for 30 min.

While the chicken is marinating, cut up the pepper, onion and mushrooms. Cut the pepperoni into quarter pieces.

Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add pepper, onion and mushrooms and saute; until slightly softened. Add chicken to saucepan and continue to heat over medium heat.

In a separate pot, cook penne pasta according to directions. Drain.

When chicken is nearly cooked (about 20 min) add pepperoni and black olives. Add Italian seasonings and salt. Simmer for 5 more min.

Add marinara sauce to the large saucepan and heat through, about 5 more min.

Put pasta on a plate, top with chicken-marinara sauce, a dash of red pepper flakes and shredded cheese to taste.

Prep time: 30 min. Cook time: 30 min. Serves: 4.
