Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together condensed soup, milk, chicken broth, thyme, salt and pepper. Stir in mushrooms, onion, raw chicken, and uncooked pasta.
- Transfer mixture to prepared baking dish. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 35 minutes.
- Remove foil and give everything a stir in the dish. Stir in sour cream, and sprinkle cheese over top. Return to the oven and bake, uncovered, for 5-10 more minutes, or until pasta is tender and chicken is cooked through.
- Let the dish stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- COOK'S TIPS AND RECIPE VARIATIONS:
- Keep this penne pasta recipe easy by using a package of sliced mushrooms (less prep work!) and pre-sliced chicken breast if you can find it in your grocery store. You can also use frozen pre-diced onion to avoid any chopping!
- Make the penne pasta recipe vegetarian by omitting the chicken and substituting with a can of drained, rinsed beans or additional vegetables. Nice options include peas (stir frozen peas in during the final 10 minutes of baking), frozen mixed vegetables, or steamed crisp-tender broccoli florets.
- Make this penne pasta recipe with tuna or canned salmon in lieu of the chicken.
- Can't find the cheddar cheese soup? Substitute with condensed cream of mushroom soup instead!
