Two of the most common chicken pasta recipes are chicken ravioli cacciatore and Cajun chicken pasta. To anyone who loves eating pasta, you have probably tasted these two dishes. To help you out in preparing these chicken pastas, here are the steps.
Chicken Ravioli Cacciatore
This is a famous Italian dish wherein the chicken is cooked with a tomato base and mixed with several herbs and spices to give the delectable flavor. For this, you will need a pound of chicken breasts that are cut into bite size pieces, one white onion and one green bell pepper that are both chopped, a table spoon of olive oil, a cup of water, a can of diced tomatoes, a can of tomato sauce and one package of cheese-filled ravioli that is refrigerated.
For the preparation, you start with the olive oil. Heat the oil using a skillet with medium heat then add the chicken, onion and the bell pepper. Stir this until the chicken has turned brown or when it is already cooked. Afterwards, add the water, the tomato sauce and the tomatoes and bring to a boil. You can now add the ravioli and cover it with the tomato mixture but making sure that it is carefully separated. It will take about 15 minutes for the chicken pasta to cook, when the sauce is already thick enough and when the chicken is no longer pink. You are now ready to serve your pasta recipe after only a few minutes of preparation.
Cajun Chicken Pasta
This is a chicken pasta recipe that is Southern inspired, and will surely be a delicious meal. What you will need are 4 ounces of linguine pasta, 2 chicken breast halves that are sliced into thin strips, two teaspoons of Cajun seasoning and butter, one chopped green and red bell pepper, sliced four mushrooms, one minced green onion, 1 1/2 cup of thick cream, 1/4 teaspoon of dried basil, lemon pepper, salt, garlic powder and ground black pepper and two tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese.
First of, you need to cook the pasta in salted water for about 10 minutes then drain the water. In a bowl, put the chicken and the Cajun seasoning and toss until the chicken is coated. Using a skillet under medium heat, heat the butter and sauté the chicken until the juices are clear. This will take about 5 minutes. You then add the bell pepper, mushrooms, green onion and cook for around three minutes. When it is already cooked, add the thick cream and make sure that the heat is only low. Add the other seasonings and stir occasionally until cooked. When serving, pour the sauce over the pasta and sprinkle the parmesan cheese on top.
