Step 1

Cook pasta in salted boiling water according to package direction until al dente. Once cooked, drain and set aside. Make sure you drizzle it with olive oil so that pasta won't stick together.

Step 2

Cut chicken breast into cubes and place in a bowl. Season chicken with ½ tablespoon of olive oil, finely minced garlic, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt and pepper.

Step 3

Heat ½ tablespoon of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet. When hot, add seasoned chicken and cook on both sides, until tender.

Step 4

Once the chicken is cooked, add to the skillet chopped sun-dried tomatoes, baby spinach and milk. Cover with a lid and cook over medium heat for a couple of minutes, until the spinach is wilted.

Step 5

Add to the skillet cream cheese and Parmesan cheese, then give it a good stir. Taste and adjust the sauce with more salt and pepper if necessary.

Step 6

Stir in the creamy chicken sauce the cooked pasta and the remaining olive oil.

Step 7

Serve warm with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and chili flakes on top, if you desired.
