- 8 oz bow tie pasta
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp parsley - chopped
Instructions

- Add in the onions and peppers and continue to cook until the chicken is fully cooked through and browned.

Keep an eye on the skillet while simmering, stir every 5 mins or so to make sure there is no sticking or burning.
Add more milk or cream if the liquid evaporates out too quickly.
