How to Make Chasta Chili And Pasta Dish

  1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  2. While pasta cooks, heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add ground meat, bell pepper, and onion. Cook, breaking up the meat, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Stir in salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Cook for 1 minute.
  4. Add cooked chicken, minced garlic, taco seasoning, and ranch seasoning. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
  5. Stir in undrained diced tomatoes, enchilada sauce, and tomato paste. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce slightly thickens.
  6. Add the cooked pasta, corn, beans, and chicken broth to the pot. Stir to combine.
  7. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, for 45-60 minutes, or until the flavors have melded and the chili has thickened to your liking. Stir occasionally.
  8. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more chicken broth if a thinner chili is preferred.
