Inspired by a Cheesecake Factory favorite, this Chipotle Chicken Pasta delivers bold flavor with creamy texture and smoky heat. Juicy chicken is seasoned with spices like cumin, paprika, garlic, and red pepper flakes, then sautéed until golden. Colorful bell peppers and onions bring crunch and sweetness, while a chipotle-infused cream sauce ties it all together with layers of depth. Finished with mozzarella, Parmesan, and fresh parsley, every bite is cheesy, spicy, and soul-satisfying. Perfect for weeknight comfort or impressing guests—this dish is a standout pasta experience.
