Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1 lb ground chicken, skinless
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup bell pepper, chopped
15 ounces tomato sauce
4 cups water
1 envelope taco seasoning mix
8 ounces thin spaghetti, uncooked
1/2 cup fat-free cheddar cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a 12" skillet over medium heat.
  • Add chicken, onions, and bell peppers.
  • Cook until chicken is no longer pink and vegetables are tender.
  • Stir in water, tomato sauce and taco seasoning mix.
  • Bring to a boil.
  • Add the uncooked spaghetti.
  • Reduced heat covered and simmer until spaghetti is tender, about 25 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with cheese.

Tips:

  • Use a large skillet or Dutch oven to cook the spaghetti, as this will prevent the pasta from sticking together.
  • Cook the spaghetti according to the package directions, but drain it a few minutes before it is completely done, as it will continue to cook in the sauce.
  • While the spaghetti is cooking, prepare the sauce by sautéing the onion, garlic, and bell pepper in olive oil until softened.
  • Add the ground beef, chili powder, cumin, and oregano to the skillet and cook until the beef is browned.
  • Stir in the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and tomato paste and simmer for at least 15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  • Once the sauce is done, add the cooked spaghetti and stir to combine.
  • Serve the Fiesta Spaghetti immediately, topped with shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, and chopped cilantro.
