Ingredients: 2 tbsp butter; 2 tbsp oil from sun-dried tomatoes; 1 lb chicken breast, diced; 1 tsp salt; 1/2 tsp black pepper; 1 tsp garlic powder; 1 tsp onion powder; 1 tsp Italian seasoning; 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes; 1 tbsp minced garlic; 1/2 cup julienned sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained; 2.5 cups cavatappi pasta; 4 cups chicken broth; 2.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided; 1/2 cup milk; dried parsley, for garnish; grated Parmesan cheese, for serving

1

Heat a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and oil from the sun-dried tomato jar.

2

Add the diced chicken to the skillet. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes.

3

Cook the chicken, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

4

Add the minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes. Sauté for 30-60 seconds until the garlic is fragrant.

5

Stir in the uncooked pasta, then pour in the chicken broth. Stir everything together and bring to a simmer.

6

Once simmering, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and let it cook for 12-15 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente and has absorbed most of the liquid.

7

Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in 2 cups of the shredded mozzarella and the milk until the cheese is melted and a creamy sauce forms.

8

Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese over the top.

9

Place the skillet under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, just until the cheese on top is melted and bubbly.

10

Garnish with dried parsley and serve hot. Top with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
