(The long way)
Ingredients:
2 Tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves of garlic
1 lb thawed chicken breasts
4 cups pasta (I like shells)
4 chopped tomatoes
2 chili peppers
cilantro
splash lime juice
salt and pepper to taste
1 lb Velveta
Directions:
1. Fry chicken in olive oil and garlic till gold on both sides.
2. Start cooking pasta.
3. Add tomatoes, chilies, cilantro, lime, salt and pepper to chicken. Cover and simmer till chicken is cooked through, about 8-12 minutes.
4. Rest chicken till it's cool enough to cut. Cut chicken into bite sized pieces.
5. Add cooked pasta, chicken and tomato mixture. Put a layer of this mixture in the bottom of a 13x9" pan. Top with slices of Velveta. Add another layer of the pasta mixture and top with more Velveta.
6. Bake at 400° till cheese is melted, about 10 minutes.
