1-1/2 cups water
1 1-1/4-ounce envelope taco seasoning mix

1. Cook pasta according to directions; drain and set aside.
2. Meanwhile, in a 12-inch skillet cook ground chicken and onion, half at a time, until meat is brown; drain fat. Return all of the chicken mixture to skillet. Stir in water and taco seasoning mix. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in cooked pasta, corn, olives, half of the shredded cheese, salsa, and chile peppers.
3. Transfer mixture to a lightly greased 3-quart rectangular casserole. Bake, covered, in a 350 degree F oven for 45 minutes or until heated through. Remove from oven; sprinkle with remaining cheese.
4. Serve with lettuce, tomato wedges, and, if desired, tortilla chips and sour cream.
For 6 Servings: Prepare using method above, except transfer mixture to a 2-quart rectangular baking dish and bake for 30 minutes.
Notes: I only used 1 pound pound ground beef, 1 can of corn, 1 can of chili's and 1 large can of olives and I had to use 16 oz pasta, I just used a little more than half. I didnt use the lettuce or tomatoes or chips I just added sour cream to my plate
