Bowtie Pasta & Chicken

This weekend I decided to make up my own creation. I am always trying to find inexpensive meals, and this one was so easy and requires little ingredients.
Finished Pasta


Ingredients:

1 box bow-tie pasta
2 chicken breasts
2 cups (about 1/2 a jar) red pasta sauce
1 small can sliced black olives
Shredded Parmesan cheese
Black pepper to taste

Sauce Cooking
Directions:
  1. Cut the chicken breasts up into bite size pieces. Cook thoroughly. Add the sauce and allow to warm up on medium/low heat stirring frequently.
  2. Cook the pasta as directed on box, usually 11-15 minutes depending on how hard/soft you like the pasta.
  3. Drain Pasta in colander. 
  4. Stir in the sliced olives to the sauce/chicken mixture. 
  5. Ladle the sauce mixture onto a portion of the pasta and top with Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle pepper on top if desired. Serves 4.
