Make It

COOK pasta as directed on package, omitting salt.

MEANWHILE, cook chicken in large skillet on medium heat 5 to 6 min. or until done, stirring occasionally. Add next 5 ingredients; mix well. Cook 3 min. or until Neufchatel is completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring frequently.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Food Facts

Some cooks prefer to drain the pasta well to prevent excess water from diluting the sauce, while others like a little moisture to help prevent pasta from sticking together. In any case, reserve a few tablespoons of cooking water to add to pasta if it starts to stick together or if you want to dilute the sauce.

This recipe was fairly easy and was very delicious!! I doubled the recipe thinking it wouldn't make much but ended up feeding 7 people and having leftovers. It makes a lot!!

Everyone at my dinner party raved about it. This recipe tasted just like my favorite dish at my favorite local Italian joint. Next time I make it though I won't add the water(or not all that the recipe calls for). The sauce turned out a little thin and I had to add a some flour to thicken it up.

I really liked this recipe. I didn't use any water as suggested by others and I used "veggie bacon" instead of the real stuff. I also added garlic and herbs. The sauce was thick and very tasty. My child did not like it though and my boyfriend could take it or leave it.

Second time making this one. It's great! I dump some italian seasoning and Mrs. Dash garlic and herb on the chicken while it's cooking for some added zing.
