Ingredients
  

8 oz penne pasta

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced

2 tbsp olive oil

1/2 cup buffalo sauce (plus more for drizzling)

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese

1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley (for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Cook the penne pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the diced chicken. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and slightly browned.

      Add Buffalo Sauce: Pour in the buffalo sauce and stir well to coat the chicken. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes.

        Make the Sauce: Lower the heat and add in the heavy cream, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle simmer and allow the mixture to thicken slightly, about 3-5 minutes.

          Combine Pasta: Add the cooked penne pasta to the skillet with the chicken and sauce. Toss everything together until the pasta is thoroughly coated.

            Cheesy Goodness: Gradually stir in the shredded mozzarella cheese until melted and combined. If you prefer a creamier pasta, add more heavy cream to reach your desired consistency.

              Serve: Remove from heat, and sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese on top. Garnish with fresh parsley and chopped green onions. Drizzle with additional buffalo sauce if desired.

                Enjoy Your Meal! Serve hot and watch as everyone digs into this comforting and spicy dish.
