Instructions

In a large stock pot, add chicken and half of the can of stewed tomatoes. Heat on medium high until chicken is no longer pink. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Add pasta sauce, water, and rotini pasta to pan and bring to a boil. Season with Italian seasoning and parsley. Add the red pepper flakes if you want to add a touch of spicy heat to your sauce. Reduce heat to simmer and cover for 15 minutes or until pasta is cooked.
Stir in remaining stewed tomatoes and both cheeses. Serve with fresh basil and additional cheese if desired.
