🌵🍲 Chili Champions & Backyard Cooks 🍲🌵Chuckwagon Recipe of the Day – Thursday, May 7, 2026🔥 Cowboy Campfire Creamy Tuscan Chicken & Pasta Skillet 🔥

Good morning, 🤠Today’s chuckwagon favorite brings a touch of Tuscan-inspired flavor to the trail—a rich, creamy, and savory one-pan meal that feels a little fancy but is still simple to make!

With tender chicken, hearty pasta, and a creamy garlic sauce with sun-dried tomatoes and spinach, this dish is full of bold flavor and comfort.

🍗🍝🌿 Ingredients

• 1½ lbs chicken (cubed or sliced)

• 1 tablespoon oil or butter

• 1 small onion, diced

• 3 cloves garlic, minced

• 2 cups pasta (uncooked)

• 2 cups chicken broth

• 1 cup milk or heavy cream

• ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped

• 1 cup fresh spinach

• 1 teaspoon salt

• ½ teaspoon black pepper

• ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning

• ½ cup grated parmesan cheese

🔥 Chuckwagon Cooking Instructions

1️⃣ Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat.

2️⃣ Add oil and cook chicken until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

3️⃣ In the same skillet, sauté onion and garlic until soft and fragrant.

4️⃣ Add uncooked pasta, chicken broth, and sun-dried tomatoes. Stir well.

5️⃣ Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 12–15 minutes until pasta is tender.

6️⃣ Stir in cooked chicken, milk or cream, spinach, and seasonings.

7️⃣ Add parmesan cheese and stir until melted and creamy.

🥄 Chuckwagon Serving Tip

Serve hot with:

• Garlic bread 🧄

• A side salad

• Or enjoy it straight from the skillet 🤠

⭐ Campfire Tip

Add spinach at the very end—it wilts quickly and keeps its fresh flavor and color.
