Got home late today, just ahead of another snow, but we needed to eat something, and eat something comforting and warm!
Previously I had frozen some chicken meat, and I found the big pasta noodles I wanted to try, along with a jar of Mezzetta pasta sauce, and some sun dried tomatoes. Well, it looked to me like all this would go together pretty well together, and well it did!
I cooked the huge pasta noodles for about 12 minutes, while I chopped up the chicken into bite size pieces, and cut the dried tomatoes down to thin strips.
On a back burner I heated the Home Style Marinara. On the larger front burner I began cooking the chicken in olive oil and garlic. I also put the dried tomatoes into the hot skillet and cooked them with the meat. I used sea salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper to season the chicken meat. Once the chicken was thoroughly cooked (which means the tomatoes had plumped up and cooked) I added it to the marinara and then poured it all over the noodles!
Man, watching the heavy flakes of snow come down while eating hot pasta is the end to a perfect day!

Sounds yummy.
With the leftovers, I melted some four Italian cheeses on top!
