Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
1/2 lb skinless boneless chicken breast cut into 1/4"
strips
1 x onion chopped
2 x cloves garlic minced
28 oz crushed tomatoes no salt added
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp Italian Seasoning
2 cup penne pasta
2/3 cup fat-free ricotta cheese
1/3 cup shredded lowfat mozzarella cheese
Instructions:
Instructions: 1. Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray; heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning as needed, until lightly browned, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

2. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

3. Spray the same skillet with more nonstick cooking spray. Add the onion and garlic; cook, stirring as needed, until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add the tomatoes, Italian seasoning and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, stirring as needed, until the mixture is thickened slightly, 8-10 minutes.

4. Meanwhile, cook the ziti according to package directions. Drain and mix with the ricotta cheese.

5. Pour half of the tomato mixture into a 13X9" baking pan, layer with the ziti mixture, the chicken and the remaining tomato mixture. Sprinkle with the cheeses. Bake until hot and bubbling and the cheese is melted, 15-20 minutes.

"Nickaduck" to TNT It was good, and Ill definitely make it again, but I think I would like the consistency and flavor of spaghetti sauce better. I would then leave out the whole step of sauteing the onion and garlic. I use Barilla and it doesnt change the Weight Watcher point count too much. This is huge for 4 servings.

If you eat smaller servings this is more like 6 servings.
