Buffalo Chicken Pasta

By Addie

This is the second recipe I've tried from Smoky Mountain Cafe. I have never thought of trying buffalo chicken as a pasta dish. This was a nice change for dinner. It is spicy - I used 3 Tbsp of hot sauce. I cooked my chicken the night before in my Pampered Chef Deep Covered Baker (only takes 8 minutes). This meal came together in less than 20 minutes. Great weeknight meal!

Ingredients

• 1 pound chicken, seasoned with lemon pepper
• 1/2 pound penne pasta, cooked and drained
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 1 shallot, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 8 oz tomato sauce
• 3 Tbsp wing sauce
• 1 Tbsp Worcestershire

Preparation

Step 1

Season chicken with lemon pepper, cook and chop (I used my Deep Covered Baker and cooked on High for 8 minutes). In a large skillet add olive oil, shallot and garlic. Saute for 3 minutes. Add worcestershire, tomato sauce, wing sauce and chicken to skillet. Simmer over medium-low heat for 20 minutes. Toss in cooked penne pasta. Top with cheese of your choice - I used an Italian cheese blend.
