Greek Pasta and Chicken

August 18, 2014 by Werona

Greek Pasta and Chicken is one of those meals that I make when I want a quick and easy dinner. It’s made from a mix of pasta, chicken, olive oil and a couple varieties of peppers. Top it with oregano and feta cheese, giving it a lovely Greek twist.

This meal came from a Weight Watchers cookbook, which I have, once again, altered to suit my family’s tastes and preferences. I have said it many times, but I love the meals that come out of Weight Watchers. Given how much chocolate I have been eating lately, I might be getting an opportunity to try some more of their recipes 🙂

Greek Pasta in Frying Pan

I often use precooked chicken from Costco for this recipe. As this is one of my “rush” meals, I find this saves me a lot of time. If you like, you can cut up some fresh chicken and grill or pan fry it.

While the pasta is cooking, I fry the onions. The pepperoncini, peppers and cooked chicken are added, and cooked until the chicken is heated through. When the pasta is cooked, it is added to the mix and tossed with a little more olive oil.

Divide the pasta between 4-6 bowls, then top with oregano and feta. Enjoy – it’s one of my favorites!
