Ingredients
For the Chicken
- 4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
- 3 tablespoons garlic powder
- 3 tablespoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/3 cup BBQ sauce, OR make from a shortcut
For the Pasta
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, smashed and minced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 zucchini, thinly sliced ad quartered
- 2 cups chicken stock, fresh or from powder
- 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup, OR make from a shortcut
- 1/2 cup cream
- 500 grams dry Penne pasta
- salt and pepper, to taste
- fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
- chili flakes, for garnish
Instructions
For the Chicken
- Combine all the ingredients except the chicken and the barbecue sauce to make a dry rub. Coat the chicken with the dry rub. Place the chicken in your slow cooker, pour the barbecue sauce over the chicken and cover with a piece of baking paper. Put the lid on and cook on Low setting for 3-4 hours, or until chicken is tender. Cool slightly before shredding the chicken with a pair of forks. Set aside.
For the Pasta
- Heat olive oil in a skillet. Add onion and garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add the red pepper and zucchini. Stir to mix. Add the chicken, followed by the chicken stock, condensed soup, and cream. Stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to your liking. Bring to a boil. Once the liquid is boiling, add the pasta, give everything a stir and lower the heat to a simmer.
- Place a cover on the skillet and simmer the pasta for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the liquid dries out too much, add a little water. Once the pasta is cooked, remove from heat and serve, garnish parsley and chili flakes if desired.
Notes
Chicken breasts run anywhere from 60 to 75 Baht/kilo. 4 breasts should be less than that. Make the shortcuts listed and this is about $1 per serving for 4 servings. Very reasonable and inexpensive meal.
