Penne pasta, chicken, ramen noodle soup mix, cream of chicken soup, frozen veggies, odds&ends spices, butter?

prefer to keep it healthy-ish but I just am hungry and can't get to the store...any suggestions?Penne pasta, chicken, ramen noodle soup mix, cream of chicken soup, frozen veggies, odds%26amp;ends spices, butter?
boil pasta till almost done pour in one to two cups frozen vegetables let cook for 2 minutes.in same pot as pasta,while that is cooking coat bite size pieces of chicken in olive oil , salt, pepper, garlic powder and cook till lightly browned..add to drained pasta and vegetables..I also add tbs of olive oil to pasta and veggies when done, then salt and pepper..Penne pasta, chicken, ramen noodle soup mix, cream of chicken soup, frozen veggies, odds%26amp;ends spices, butter?
Assuming this is a whole chicken, cut it up and salt and pepper it. Put a little bit of olive oil or butter in a heavy skillet and turn the heat up to medium. Fry the chicken skin side down until browned, then flip the pieces over and brown the other side- say, 5 minutes.





Pour out the excess chicken fat that's accumulated, and add about 2 cups of the frozen vegetables. A sliced onion would be a very good thing to add, as would some garlic.





If you have some white wine, add a cup, cover the pan, and cook on medium heat for 20 minutes. Add more wine or some hot water if it gets dry.





While this is cooking, boil a big pot and cook the penne until it's al dente. Drain it well.





When the chicken is doen, you should have plenty of sauce along with the cooked chicken. Mix that with the penne, along with a couple pats of butter to enrich it a bit, and serve with the chicken.
You can definitely make something with these ingredients...boil your penne in heavily salted water, and pan cook your chicken (with salt, pepper, and olive oil). if you don't want to pan cook your chicken you can always use salt and pepper on it with a little olive oil and bake it for approximately 20 minutes. Don't forget to let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before you chop it up - it will come out better that way! Microwave your frozen vegetables (depending on your microwave and the amount of food...for 3minutes or so) with a little salt and butter, be sure to fill your container at least half full with water to cook the veggies. I would use the soup as a cream sauce and add half the milk required to keep it thick. Drain your pasta and place it into a large mixing bowl. Chop up your chicken and add it to the pasta. Drain your vegetables and add them in too. Finally add in your 'cream sauce'. Adjust your flavors with salt and pepper. I would not use the ramen noodle mix with this...the flavors will really clash. Let me know how this works out for you!
Cook the chicken. Cook the pasta, stir in the cream of chicken soup, the cooked chicken, some veggies and put in the oven to bake till bubbly. Top with cheese if desired. Eat. You can stir in some cheese with the chicken, soup and pasta, too if you like.
cook the veggies, pasta, and cream of chicken soup. mix the soup and pasta together and eat the veggies with butter depending on what they are.
You have enough for 2 meals at least .save ramen soup mix and some veggies for lunch tomorrow.
