Mini Fusilli w/ Creamy Spinach and Chicken

Have I mentioned how much I love finding recipes on the back of a box I already have in my pantry??? Well, I love it! I made this for dinner and it was awesome! Try it. You'll like it!

Ingredients:

1 box Barilla Piccolini Mini Fusilli, cooked according to package, drain

2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil

1 tbsp. onion, finely chopped (I used more onion than that)

1 lb. chicken breast, cubed

1 (6 oz.) bag baby spinach, cut in strips

1 c. heavy whipping cream

1/2 c. Parmesan cheese, grated

salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

- In a medium skillet, saute onion in the olive oil over medium heat for 3 minutes.

- Increase heat to medium-high, add chicken, season with salt and pepper.

- After 3 minutes or when chicken is cooked through add spinach and cream.

- Simmer 5 additional minutes.

- Add cooked pasta to the chicken and spinach and toss.

- Sprinkle with cheese before serving.

NOTE: Next time I make this I am going to add mushrooms and maybe some peas!
