1/2

cup water

1/4

tsp. pepper

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.

DRAIN pasta; place in large bowl. Add sauce; mix lightly. Sprinkle with Parmesan.

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.

No one in my home was really a fan of this recipe and I have to agree. There are probably some things I could do to improve it to my taste, but I think I'll pass on this one!

I often make this with rotini noodles! It is delicious and I recommend it highly :) I've used regular diced tomatoes and added mushrooms for a twist. Always a good meal! :)

this was really good. I didn't use bacon because my husband doesn't care for it but still turned out good.I was shocked when my 4 year old asked for more.

This was a quick and easy meal that you can make really healthy. Oh and it tasted great! We switched out the noodles for the shape we like and got it in whole wheat.

Turned out really watery and there wasn't much flavor.

This was good. I added some basil leaves and garlic powder for some flavor because it seemed to taste kind of bland before adding it. My Fiance loved it and I would definitely make this again, maybe adding more things next time too it.

This was really good. Beats having spaghetti and alfredo all the time. I added garlic and creole seasing to the sauce just to give it a little more spice.Excellent!!
