BBQ Chicken Pasta

"One of my favorites is the BBQ chicken pasta at Semolina's. This recipe was copied from a cooking demonstration by one of the Semolina's chefs on the New Orleans PBS station. It's very close to what you get at Semolina's. I prefer chicken thighs but if you must boneless breasts work fine. P.S., if the best thing you ever tasted came out of a cassarole dish, this might be a little out there for you."

  1. Thank you for this recipe. This is my favorite dish at Semolinas. I order it every time! I made it tonight and it was delicious. It tasted exactly like what they make at Semolinas. I did cut the recipe in half and only used 3/4 cup tomato sauce (Bertolli’s tomato and basil) and 1 cup BBQ Sauce (Dickeys), 1/4 cup of sugar to cut down on acids and 1 cup water. I’m so happy I have this recipe! It was perfectly delicious.
