Cheyanne's Chicken Goulash

Submitted by HeidiSue

"This is my friend Cheyanne's recipe, she made it for me when I had my last baby. It's different because it's made with chicken not beef. I have made it without the bell pepper and celery and it was still great. Easy, healthy and delicious."

 

• Ready In: 1hr 10mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Serves: 3-4

ingredients

• 2 chicken breasts, cut into chunks
• 2 celery ribs, chopped
• 1⁄2 medium onion, chopped
• 1 green bell pepper, chopped
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 (15 ounce) can chopped tomatoes
• 1 (8 ounce) can Mexican tomato sauce
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 3 cups cooked macaroni or 3 cups pasta, of choice

directions

1. Saute celery, onion and bell pepper in butter until soft. *I do not like crunchy veggies so I start with the celery because it takes the longest, then after a few minutes I add the onions and then the bell peppers.
2. Once the veggies are the way you like them add the chicken and brown for a few minutes.
3. Add all remaining ingredients and simmer 20 minutes.
4. Toss in the pasta and serve.

this recipe is really good!! My dad made the original goulash when I was a kid, but due to current health issues I can no longer have red meat. Only thing was I used chicken thighs because they were cheaper in my store than chicken breasts. Thanks for the recipe!!

Real family pleaser! Cook pleaser too! Fast and yummy! Loved the combo here. I have made a similar dish forever with ground meat but never chicken breast! I like this much better! Thanks for such a wonderful recipe.
