RattleSnake Pasta

Here's an easy-to-make dish my friends absolutely love. They ask me to make it for them every time they come over for dinner. Here's what you'll need to make this unique, spicy pasta:

3 cooked, diced chicken breasts (bonless, skinless)
1 can Alfredo sauce
1 cup Frank's Red Hot sauce
1 box penne noodles
1/4 cup butter
1 cup of sliced black olives
1/2 green pepper (diced)
1/2 white onion (diced)
1/4 tomato (diced)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste.

Bake chicken breasts for 40 minutes at 350 degrees (or until done). Dice the chicken and then set aside.

Cook the noodles and then set aside.

In a saucepan over medium heat, add the alfredo sauce, Frank's red hot sauce, and 1/4 cup butter (add more butter to make it less spicy). When the sauce starts to heat up, add the green pepper, onion, tomato, olives, and chicken (cooked).

Let simmer over medium heat for 3 minutes. Throw in the parmesan and cheddar cheese and allow to cook for another minute or until the cheese is slightly melted.

Pour over the noodles and serve.

This is a very unique dish you'll really enjoy if you give it a try. :)

Next, throw the strips of cooked chicken into the saucepan. Mix everything together for an additional 1 or 2 minutes over medium heat. Add 1 cup of salsa and allow to cook for additional minute.

Feel free to add more Fajita seasoning to suit your tastes.

Serve the mix on warm tortilla shells with sides of lettuce, sour cream, and shredded mexican cheese. Good side dishes to accompany this meal would be chips & salsa, refried beans, and guacamole.
