Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet that has a lid with it over medium heat. Saute the diced onion until tender, then toss in the garlic and stir until fragrant.
  • Add the pasta, diced tomatoes, chicken broth, bbq sauce and chicken to the skillet. Stir to combine and bring to a slight boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally until pasta is tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Top the pasta with the shredded cheese and cover with the lid until the cheese melts, about 3 minutes. Finish it off with the fried onion strings, a little cilantro and a drizzle of extra bbq sauce if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
You can substitute pulled pork for the shredded chicken if desired.
