Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
  • ½ cup yellow onion diced
  • 2 teaspoons garlic minced
  • 1 can diced tomatoes undrained
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 16 ounces rigatoni pasta
  • ½ cup buffalo sauce
  • 1 block cream cheese cubed, softened
  • 1 ½ cups cheddar cheese shredded, sharp
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese shredded, divided
  • 3 cups rotisserie chicken shredded, chopped (about 1 whole rotisserie chicken, 420 g
  • ½ cup ranch dressing 120 g
  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes
  • Chives, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large 13-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Once the butter has melted, add onions. Cook for 5 minutes, or until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
  2. Add the can of diced tomatoes and chicken broth. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, add the pasta noodles, making sure to submerge them until they are completely covered. Reduce heat to low and bring the mixture back to a boil. Cover, stirring occasionally, for 10-13 minutes, or until the noodles are al dente.
  3. Keeping the heat on low, add the buffalo sauce, cubed cream cheese, sharp cheddar cheese, and 1 cup of mozzarella cheese. Stir gently until all the cheese has melted.
  4. Add the shredded chicken, ranch dressing, and red pepper flakes. Stir together and continue to cook until slightly thickened (about 2 minutes).
  5. Remove the skillet from the heat. Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese. Broil for one minute, or until the cheese is melted.
  6. Garnish with chives (optional). Serve warm.
