This wasextremely easy and really good with just a few changes. I use two cans of chicken breast a can of sliced mushrooms and two jars of light alfredo sauce. I put a little olive oil in the pan add some garlic fry it a little add the chicken and mushrooms spice it up with salt pepper basil leaves and some Emeril's Italian Essence and heat it through. Then I add the sauce and simmer. I use angel hair pasta only half a pound and after I add the pasta to the boiling water I blanch a cup or two of fresh broccoli for just a minute and add it to the pan with the sauce. That's it! My family loves it and it only takes about 15 or 20 minutes. Very tasty! Read More

Used bow tie pasta and added fresh minced garlic seasoning salt poultry seasoning (on the chicken breasts) sliced mushrooms and topped with parmesan cheese. Left out the vegetables. Easy when you need a quick meal. Read More

Great recipe...the hardest part was cooking the chicken, which tells you something. I substituted fresh vegetables and mushrooms, and it turned out better than when I did it with the frozen vegetables, but that's just a suggestion. Please note that this recipe yields what I would consider five large portions, which I could hardly finish, after adding some toast as a side. Read More

We really liked this recipe but I would be careful about the type of vegetables used. I used a california blend but I wished I would have only used broccoli. Otherwise this was easy and very good leftover as well. Read More

I scaled this up X5 to feed 20 people....After 3 lbs pasta there was enough to feed an army. I didn't add the remining pasta because it would have been way too much and I don't think there was enough sauce (5 jars) to cover that much pasta. I got rave revews and people ate a bunch but there was still alot left over. With a salad and side dish the original recipe easily would feed 6-8 not 4. Read More
