Hello one pot wonder…This Gluten Free Pumpkin Chicken Enchilada Pasta will become your go-to weeknight dinner for fall! Check out this super simple and mouthwatering recipe.

Just ONE POT is all you need, all you have to do is drop everything in and let it simmer away until the pasta is cooked. All in all, this will be on your table in less than 30 minutes!

The pumpkin in this dish isn’t totally in your face with pumpkin spice flavors. No, the pumpkin simply makes this pasta SUPER creamy and just a tad earthy. It’s really lovely, especially with the texture it adds.

Check out how easy this pasta dish is to make! You can keep reading, or feel free to hit the jump to recipe button above. It will take you to our free full printable recipe with all of our tips and notes. 

How Do I Make Gluten Free Pumpkin Chicken Enchilada Pasta?

This is such a quick and easy dish. You’re going to love this recipe as much as we do. A few quick tips: 

  • Use Rotisserie chicken so you don’t have to cook chicken breasts
  • When finished, reduce the heat, then add the cheese and stir to combine
  • Use a large skillet or pot for quick and easy cleanup

Here’s what you’re going to throw in a pot and call it a day:

  • pasta – duh…any gluten free pasta will work, my favorite is penne, or spirals
  • black beans – simple canned black beans that have been rinsed
  • cooked chicken – do yourself a favor and use a rotisserie chicken!
  • bell peppers – red and yellow yo!
  • green chilies – love the tang they add!
  • taco seasoning 
  • pumpkin – canned, NOT pumpkin pie mix though, ew
  • enchilada sauce – THIS will be your new pantry staple
  • Mexican blend cheese – enough said
  • broth – homemade if you have it on hand, bonafide provisions if you know good broth, or an organic carton if you’re pressed for time 😉

That’s it! You’ll have everything in the pot in less than 5 minutes and it will be cooked and ready to devour in mere minutes.
