Chicken w/ Pasta Roni – Parmesan Cheese

Dinner Tonight: Chicken w/ Pasta Roni – Parmesan Cheese




For Breakfast this morning I toasted a couple of slices of Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread and lightly
buttered it with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. Along with the morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Still raining here, and hard from time to time. It's been raining so much the past few days we have local flooding in the area, nothing like what's going on in Louisiana though. Did some cleaning around the house and stained some base board wood trim I had replaced a while back. Then did a little cleaning on the computer, deleting old files and running the virus scan. For dinner tonight I prepared Chicken w/ Pasta Roni – Parmesan Cheese.
 




For the Chicken part of the dish I used Perdue Perfect Portions Chicken Breasts (2 of them). I had
them in the freezer so I let them thaw overnight in the fridge. I love the Perdue Perfect Portions Chicken Breasts. Always taste fresh and nice size. Good for recipes like tonight's or to serve by their self. To prepare; removed them from the package and seasoned them with Sea Salt and Litehouse Freeze Dried Poultry Herb Blend. Then I sprinkled them with a light dusting of Flour. Cooked them in a medium skillet that was sprayed with Pam Cooking Spray and a tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Fried them on medium high heat for about 10 minutes, flipping it over 3 times. Removed from the heat and set aside. Before serving them with the Pasta I sliced the Chicken Breasts up.


I’ve prepared this a few times now, Pasta Roni Parmesan Cheese. A product of Rice – A – Roni, Pasta Roni is an Angel Hair Pasta in a Parmesan Sauce with other natural flavors. It comes with the
Pasta and Parm Sauce and I added; 1 1/3 cups of water, 2/3 cups of 2% milk, and 2 tablespoons of Blue Bonnet Light Butter. Then to prepare it; In a medium saucepan bring water, milk, margarine or butter to a boil. Then slowly stir in pasta and Special Seasonings. Separate pasta with a fork, if needed. Return to a boil. Reduce heat to medium. Boil uncovered, 4-5 min. or until pasta is just tender, stirring frequently. Sauce will be thin. Let stand 3-5 min. to thicken. There’s 2 servings per box. Nice seasoning and the Parmesan Sauce is very flavorful. I topped the Pasta with some fresh Shaved Parmesan Cheese and the Chicken. Too good, this makes one delicious Chicken and Pasta Dish! For dessert later a Skinny Cow Chocolate Truffle Bar.
