How to Make Santa Fe Chicken Pasta Copycat
- Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
- Add onion and bell pepper to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, cumin, chili powder, and oregano. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing sauce to slightly thicken.
- Stir in heavy cream, diced tomatoes, and corn. Simmer for another 3 minutes.
- Add cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat with the sauce.
- Stir in shredded cheddar cheese until melted and creamy.
- Serve immediately and garnish with fresh cilantro and a dollop of sour cream (optional).
