Parmesan, Chicken & Broccoli Pasta


This recipe is so fast and easy! Very healthy- low in fat, and high in dietary fiber which is great for you! My hubby loved it and told me I could make it 3-4 times a month and he wouldn't get tired of it! How's THAT for a yummy healthy meal!!! PLUS it's quick!

Ingredients:
2 cups cooked whole wheat spaghetti noodles
1/4 cup KRAFT Light Zesty Italian Dressing
2 cloves garlic, minced
6oz boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
2 cups broccoli florets
1/2 cup chopped tomatoes
1/2 cup KRAFT 2% Milk Shredded Mozzarella Cheese, divided
4 tsp. KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese

Directions:
Heat dressing and garlic in large nonstick skillet on medium heat. Add chicken and broccoli; cook and stir 5 to 7 min. or until chicken is cooked through. Stir in tomatoes and 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese; cook 1 to 2 min or until heated through, stirring on occasion. Serve over 1 cup cooked noodles, with remaining mozzerellavand parmesan cheeses.

Serves 2. (Fills me right up!)

To add some extra ZING, you can add some lemon pepper seasoning to the chicken as it cooks.

Since we are going out of town tomorrow I don't have fresh tomato or broccoli on hand. So tonight I used 1/2 cup canned diced tomatoes and 2 cups frozen broccoli. It made the recipe a little too runny so I added 1 tablespoon of water mixed with 1 Tablespoon cornstarch. It turned out perfect!
