<p>The flavors of tender paprika-seasoned chicken strips simmered in broth, onion and a splash of lemon juice as well as sherry go wonderfully with wilted spinach and a mix of cheeses. Sargento® Shredded Mozzarella - Traditional Cut is among the tasty toppings on top of a bed of your favorite al dente pasta.</p>
