- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 1.5 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
- Pat chicken dry and season with 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp pepper and garlic powder. In a large pan add the olive oil and sear the chicken on high heat. You just want to brown each side, not cook entirely.

- 30 minutes before it’s done take the chicken out and let cool then slice. Add in the uncooked penne pasta and cook on high for another 30 minutes.
- Once done add in the parmesan cheese and top with the sliced chicken.
