Nurodymai

In a large pot of boiling water, cook the penne pasta to al dente, according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

While the pasta is cooking, heat a large (12 inches wide x 3 inches deep) skillet on medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and boneless skinless chicken breast pieces to the hot skillet.

Cook and brown the chicken pieces for 7-9 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the browned and cooked chicken from the skillet and place it onto a plate while you prepare the sauce.

To the skillet add the unsalted butter, diced yellow onion and minced garlic. Cook the onions for 1-2 minutes or until lightly browned and translucent.

Add the chicken broth, petite diced tomatoes, yellow corn, black beans, taco seasoning, salt, black pepper and ¾ cup of the heavy cream. Stir to combine.

Bring the sauce to a boil, reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the sauce reduces and thickens. Be sure to stir the sauce often to prevent the sauce from burning and to keep the consistency smooth.

Once the sauce has thickened, turn off the heat to the skillet and add the remaining ¼ cup heavy cream, browned chicken pieces, cooked penne pasta and the grated parmesan cheese. Stir to combine and fully coat the pasta with the sauce.

Allow the southwest chicken penne alfredo to cool slightly, garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve.
