Chicken Pasta with Roasted Red Pepper Cream Sauce Recipe

This Chicken Pasta with Roasted Red Pepper Cream Sauce has to be one of my favorite, quick, family-friendly meals. Ready in less than 30 minutes, it makes a perfect busy weeknight recipe.
I start by cooking my pasta in a stockpot while cubing my chicken and quickly cooking it in a skillet.
Then, once it has cooked, I remove it to a bowl as I prepare my cream sauce.
I drain my pasta and toss it into the cream sauce, making sure get as much of that cream sauce goodness on the noodles as possible. Then, the chicken goes back into the skillet, along with a few hands full of fresh spinach, salt and pepper and voila, supper is ready!
I love recipes like that!

Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe! It was easy to make, and it’s perfectly spicy & creamy. Love it!
I tried this tonight with mushrooms, nutmeg, and Parmesan cheese. Big. Hit. Thank you so much for this great recipe.
Didn’t have cream so I used goat cheese. It is yummy. This is dinner tonight for my family.
This was absolutely delish!! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfect. It was a restaurant quality meal. The kids loved it. Everyone had seconds. Will definitely make again. Next time I may add some mushrooms.
