INGREDIENTS

  • Pasta & Grains

    • 🍝 1 (12 ounce) package spaghetti noodles, broken in half

  • Protein

    • 🍗 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

  • Vegetables

    • 🍅 5 roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped
    • 🧅 1 large onion, chopped

  • Dairy

    • 🧀 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

  • Pantry Items

    • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
    • ½ tablespoon ground cumin
    • 2 ½ teaspoons chili powder
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    • 💧 1 ½ cups water

STEPS

1

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken breasts in the oil until nicely browned on the outside. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

2

Add remaining oil to the skillet, and add the broken spaghetti. Cook, stirring constantly until spaghetti is browned. Drain off any excess oil, and add tomatoes and onion.

3

Dice the chicken breasts, and return them to the skillet. Season with cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper. Pour in water, cover, and simmer over medium-low heat until pasta is tender, and water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes.

4

Check towards the end, and add more water if necessary. Spoon the chicken mixture into bowls to serve, and garnish with shredded cheese.
