Southwestern Chicken and Ziti

It has been a while since I've posted. I've been feeling a little under the weather lately with my ears. This time of year always gives me a lot of problems. It doesn't mean I've stopped cooking but I do need to catch up. The last meal of the pressure cooker meals was southwestern chicken and ziti. I made this Thursday night. Friday night we had dinner with the family for mom and Sherry's birthday. This meal is a spicy meal so remember that when cooker and use less spices if need be.

Southwestern Chicken and Ziti

• 2lbs Boneless, skinless chicken breasts, chunked 
• 1 Can rotel - I used mild 
• 1.5 Cups chicken broth 
• 1 Can pinto beans, rinsed 
• 8oz Ziti
• 4.2oz Green chiles
• 1/3 Cup cilantro
• 1 Tbs chili powder
• 1 Tsp cumin
• 1/2 Tsp salt
• 1/2 Tsp pepper

Combine all the above into pressure cooker and cook for 10 minutes. 

This meal was spicy and great for my stuffed up sinus issues. There was nothing left in this pot when we were done (I make my lunch portion before we finish so I ensure I have enough for lunch). Jake said it was a great mashup between mexican and italian dishes.
