Quick chicken fettuccini with spinich.

Tonight dinner was an after thought as we had planned on making chili, but due to having to drop truck off at the body shop we forgot to start it in crockpot. So while watching tv I was asked what was for dinner. I got up and looked. Needless to say we need to go food shoppping at some point tomorrow. But anyhow I did find something that sparked an idea.
I pulled out a lowly single bag of "Knorr Pasta sides Chicken flavor Fettuccini in a savory chicken sauce" well its a 4.3oz bag, and I had egg noodles also. So I went out to freezer and grabbed some boneless skinless chicken breasts,mine was frozen but one can use fresh. I did thaw mine out about halfway in the microwave(enough to get a knife through). Then I cut into bite size peices.
I used a cast iron fry pan( but any deep dish fry pan will do) put maybe a tablespoon of country crock in the hot pan to saute the chicken. the only seasoning I used other then the packaged noodles was a barbque rub called "Butt Rub". No lie... thats its name. Once chicken was almost cooked through I added the noodles per package instructions. However I deviated slightly by adding extra egg noodles(a couple handfulls) and hence adding more water( I eyeballed it).
Let that cook about five minutes or so till egg noodles are aldente. At this point add the spinich, again fresh or frozen dont matter. I used frozen as that was all I had on hand. let cook on med-low so sause will thicken. Just before mine was done I did add more buttrub to give it a little more kick. that would be optial, a season to taste kinda thing.
Once spinich and all noodles are throughly cooked as chicken should have been done by now if cut small enough, remove from heat and serve.
It was good and depending on how one likes it, no extra salt or pepper is needed. I didnt look at how long it took to make from start to finish but considering what was on tv when I started dinner it took about one period of hockey.

Below are ingridants (rough messurments as I tend to eyeball when I cook)

4- small- medium boneless skinless chicken brests
(if frozen, thawed enough to get knife through easily)
1-4.3oz bag of Knorr Pasta sides Chicken flavor Fettuccini in a savory chicken sauce
1 1/2 cup egg noodles
1 1/2 cup water(above what package reqiures. use as needed)
1/2 package of spinich(if fresh use at least 2 cups)
1 tablepoon country crock(to cook chicken in)
1-2 tablespoons "Buttrub" (sprinkle to coat chicken in pan. use remaining amount after spinich is added)

Its a healhty, qiuck meal with little clean up as its a one pan meal.
If you dont have a store that sells Butt Rub goto http://www.buttrub.com/

I'd love to hear what you think if you try this.
Take care and happy eating...

Intro

Well hello again to those who have read my other blogs.
I was eating an early lunch of an item I have never had and thought about when I would make it again but from scratch and then had a thought about blogging about recipes I have made or foods I have tried and what not. I know thats been done before but one can never have too many recipes to spare them from food boredom. My first recipe will be posted soon.
Take care...
