Ingredients:
- i package of pepperoni slices (i've never tried it with turkey pepperoni but it might lower the fat content)
- generous sprinkling shredded parmesan cheese
Directions:
- Cook the pasta just slightly less than the recommended package directions in copious amount of salted boiling water.
- You will cook the pasta more in the oven and you don't want it to turn to mush.
- In a large skillet, heat and fry the pepperoni until almost crispy and it releases a lot of the fat.
- Remove pepperoni to drain on some paper towels, reserve the fat in the pan.
- Now, over medium heat add the chicken chunks and brown in the pepperoni fat, so the chicken picks up the flavor from the oil.
- You can add a few more spices here, I tend to throw in a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes, a pinch of oregano and perhaps some basil.
- In a large bowl, mix the cooked pasta, chicken, pepperoni and jarred sauce. Mix well.
- In a large lightly oiled casserole dish, layer in half the pasta mixture, top with half of the cheese, layer in the remaining pasta and top with remaining mozzarella.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
- Pull out of oven, top with parmesan and bake five minutes more or so until the parmesan browns and gets slightly crusty.
- Serve and enjoy, my friends. The trouble with eating Italian food is that 5 or 6 days later you're hungry again.
