Another CookAble kit got on discount, also delicious.

diced chicken breast
8 to 12 cherry tomatoes
fresh minced garlic
1/4 c rigatoni pasta
1/4 c parmesan cheese
Tuscan seasoning
8 c water
sour cream (2 indiv tubes)
cream cheese (2 indiv packets)
2 Tbsp olive oil (not included in kit)

Heat 2 Tbsp olive oil in large pot. Pat dry your diced chicken breast, add to pot. Cook without moving for 3-4 minutes, then flip (how exactly? stir vigorously maybe) and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Turn off heat, add garlic and Tuscan seasoning, stir to coat chicken, then remove chicken into a bowl.

Add 8 c water to pot and 1/4 tsp of salt, stir and scrape any bits off the bottom. Turn heat to high, cover, bring to a boil. Add pasta, stir, reduce heat to medium, cover and cook for 10-12 minutes.

While pasta is cooking, wash and quarter cherry tomatoes.

When pasta is done, reserve 1/4 c pasta water, then drain, reduce heat to med low, return pasta to pot. Turn heat to med low, add reserved water, cream cheese, and sour cream. Stir until sauce has formed. Add chicken and tomatoes, and cook, covered, for 3-4 minutes, until tomatoes have softened.

Add parmesan, stir until sauce thickens and becomes cheesey.

Serve!

That sounds really good!

I would have to make it without the tomatoes and garlic, but still, it sounds really good. I copied it, thank you :)
