Prepare ingredients
Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Slice bell peppers and onion into thin strips. Mince garlic cloves. Chop fresh cilantro.
Cook chicken
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
Add vegetables and seasonings
Add sliced bell peppers, onion, minced garlic, and fajita seasoning mix to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
Add tomatoes, broth, and pasta
Stir in diced tomatoes, chicken broth, and penne pasta. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until pasta is al dente, about 12 minutes.
Add cream and cheese
Stir in heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese. Cook, stirring constantly, until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth, about 2 minutes.
Garnish and serve
Remove the pot from heat. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve hot.
