MEXICAN-STYLE CHICKEN WITH PENNE

The Husband loves penne and rigatoni and this looked pretty good. From Food & Wine magazine... I'm breaking my personal rule again...I haven't tried this - yet - but I'm planning on making it in the next week or so...The recipe did not say whether or not you leave the chicken whole, but I'm planning on cuttting mine up into bite-size pieces... (made it last night- I halved the amount of chipolte/sauce because I didn't want too much heat and I also added some of the juice from the tomatoes. Really good. I highly recommend the queso blanco too - tastes great in this)
