Instructions
- In a saute pan (fitted with a lid) melt hte butter on medium heat. Then add in the diced celery, sautee for 2 minutes. While the celery cooks, shred the cooked rotisserie chicken and set to the side.
- Sprinkle the flour on to the celery mixture, then stir in the milk, parsley, dehydrated onion, and buffalo sauce. Cook for 2 minutes until thick then add in the shredded cheddar cheese and bleu cheese. Turn off the heat, mix well and add in the chicken.
- Once the sauce is thick, add in the Barilla Ready Pasta Penne. Mix well, place the lid on the skillet and cook on low for 4 minutes. Mix well, divide evenly among two plates and top with additional bleu cheese if desired. Enjoy.
Notes
- I use par-cooked pasta. If you can't find that or need to use gluten-free, just cook the pasta separately to al dente first.
