Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
Salt & pepper to taste
2 teaspoons ranch seasoning mix
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
8 oz penne or rotini pasta
2 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce
1/2 cup ranch dressing
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup chopped green onions optional
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese optional for topping
Directions:
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add cubed chicken, season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook for 57 minutes or until golden and cooked through.
Stir in ranch seasoning mix and toss to coat the chicken.
Add uncooked pasta, chicken broth, and buffalo wing sauce. Stir well and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 1215 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender and most liquid is absorbed.
