1

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until slightly firm, 8 to 10 minutes; drain and set aside.
2

Combine the half-and-half and butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Let it simmer gently, stirring, until the mixture reduces to 1 1/2 to 1 2/3 cups. Remove the pan from the heat; whisk in the cheese, basil, oregano, chives, and parsley. Cover and set aside.
3

Sauté the chicken in a large skillet until lightly browned on both sides. Stir in the bell peppers and cook until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is no longer pink in the middle.

Combine the hot cooked pasta, chicken mixture, and sauce in a casserole dish. Mix well and serve immediately.
