    Place chicken into a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat and simmer until no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, about 15 minutes.

    At the same time, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.

    Drain cooked chicken and cut into bite-size pieces.

    You can use any medium pasta noodles that you prefer, such as ziti, large elbow, etc.

    If using the second half of a jar of Alfredo sauce, swirl the milk in the jar to get all of it out.
