Description

Directions

• Preheat the Ninja Cooking System by setting the dial to the stove top high position for 3 minutes. Melt the butter inside the cooker. Add the chicken pieces, and season with the cayenne pepper, oregano, thyme, salt and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes until chicken is no longer pink, stirring with a wooden spoon. Add onion and garlic, and cook for another 2 minutes.
• Set the dial on the ninja cooking system to OVEN at 250°F. Add the penne and the water, and stir to submerge all of the pasta. Cover and cook for 10 minutes.
• Open the cooker and add the red bell pepper, stir, and replace the lid. Cook an additional 10 minutes.
• Pour in the cream, Parmesan cheese, white pepper, and a dash of nutmeg. Set the dial to stovetop low, and stir occasionally, cooking for 2 more minutes until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy. Top with cheddar cheese and serve.
• Enjoy!
