Family life is busy! Sometimes it’s tricky to even get dinner on the table. At those times, I just need a simple solution like this chicken enchilada pasta pronto.
Well, there is a product that is key to this solution. Barilla® Pronto™ is a a one pan, no boil, no drain solution. There is no need for pre-cooking meats or veggies in a separate pan, no removing cooked pasta to another pan for other prep, etc.
My family loves to eat Mexican food, so I picked up a package of Barilla® Pronto™ and decided to make a dish with a Mexican flair. I added in some rotisserie chicken, corn, beans, enchilada sauce, and cheese.
The great thing about Barilla® Pronto™ is you can customize the dish to your liking by adding sauce, seasoning, vegetables or proteins for unlimited meal options! Get creative and see what you can come up with! I also created a creamy ham and rotini pasta pronto you can check out too.
