Spicy Chicken Pasta

*Adapted from pioneerwoman.com

Who doesn't love pasta?

If you just answered that question in the affirmative, I don't believe you. So just go ahead and cook this. You know you'll love it.

Start with 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts. Cut into bite-size pieces and season with chili powder, cumin, salt, and lots of pepper (black, white, and cayenne). Drop into a hot, oiled skillet and cook until meat is done.

Remove chicken from skillet and into the same pan drop 2 thinly sliced red bell peppers and a cup or two of sliced mushrooms. Cook for about 5-7 minutes; then add 3 cloves of minced garlic. Stir and then put in either fresh or canned diced tomatoes. I diced up about 5 Roma tomatoes and it turned out quite nicely. Add the same spices to the vegetables; cook for 5-10 minutes. Then slide the chicken back in the pan and let it all simmer together while you cook a pound of whole wheat linguine or angel hair spaghetti in boiling water, according to package directions. Mix everything together....


And enjoy!
