Ingredients

  • 1(8 ounce) packagewhole wheat penne pasta
  • 2tablespoonsolive oil
  • 3tablespoonsminced garlic
  • 1poundskinless, boneless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 1(8 ounce) packagesliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1(10.5 ounce) canfat-free cream of mushroom soup
  • ½cupwater, or as needed
  • 1pinchgarlic salt, or to taste
  • 1pinchred pepper flakes, or to taste

  • Directions

    Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a boil. Stir in penne and return to a boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain.

    Cook and stir olive oil and garlic in a large skillet over high heat just until brown and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add chicken and mushrooms; stir to coat with garlic and olive oil. Cook chicken until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in cream of mushroom soup; gradually add 1/2 cup of water about 1 tablespoon at a time, adding enough to make sauce light and creamy.

    Reduce heat to medium-low heat and gently fold pasta into the chicken and sauce until coated. Add garlic salt and red pepper to taste; remove from heat and serve.
