Ingredients for One Pot Creamy Chicken and Vegetable Pasta

This one pot meal is made with simple ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen. Kids and adults will love it!

Ingredients

Instructions 

  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • In a 12-inch pan or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and stir until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken to the pan and cook until brown on both sides. Stir in the garlic and cook one additional minute. Add the uncooked pasta, chicken broth, water, broccoli, red bell pepper, carrots and peas. Stir, then bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 22 minutes. 
  • Uncover and cook until almost all of the liquid is absorbed, about 5 additional minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in the cream cheese, mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese. Stir until cheese is melted. 
  • Divide the pasta and vegetables between four bowls, and garnish with parsley (if using). Serve immediately.

    This was delicious! I added too much broth (doubled the recipe and didn’t trust the amount), but it still turned out great.

    I am looking for a recipe for one pot cooking, with, chicken, chicken broth, spinach, sun dried tomatoes and spices. I can’t remember exactly what the spices are and am not sure of all of the ingredients. I have make it several times and we love it but I have lost my recipe. Please if anyone has one that sounds similar, please share.

    What is the best way to reheat this meal? I’m making it for a new mom and can’t deliver it hot.

    1. Lori Lange says:

      I’d put it in a throw-away foil pan and have them bake it (covered with foil) until warm again.
