Ingredients

  • 1 pound dried short pasta

  • 1 can Red Gold® Canned Crushed Tomatoes 15 oz

  • 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 7 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, chopped
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 2 cups Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
  • 1/3 cup green onions, sliced

Instructions

Step one

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Step two

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step three

In a large, ovenproof skillet over medium heat, combine the Red Gold Crushed Tomatoes, buffalo wing sauce, cream cheese, and ranch seasoning. Stir occasionally until the cream cheese melts and the sauce is smooth and creamy.

Step four

Turn off the heat, then gently fold in the cooked chicken and pasta, stirring until everything is well-coated in the sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step five

Sprinkle the shredded Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the pasta mixture. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly around the edges.

Step six

Remove from the oven, sprinkle with sliced green onions, and serve hot.
