Notes
This recipe is a great way to use up rotisserie chicken or other leftover cooked chicken.
This meal is best enjoyed when it's freshly baked. However, leftovers can be covered and refrigerated for up to 3-5 days.
I have only tested this recipe with the Chicken flavor fettucine variety of Knorr Pasta Sides.
