Chicken fajita pasta bake

 

I made this recently when I had some chicken and peppers and was going to make fajitas then forgot to get the wraps on the way home from work.  I have my fajita seasoning in the cupboard always if you want the recipe for that click here 

It is a really quick and easy dinner serves 4-6 generously.  You can use any pasta shape you like I like shells as the sauce sticks to them.
