I am having chicken tonight. Mine won't be this recipe because I don't have the chicken or the penne pasta but it may be similar to it. It sounds delicious. Of course mine will be broccoli and spaghetti noodles because that is all I have in my cupboards that is close to this!!


INGREDIENTS

1 (16 ounce) package dry penne pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
3/4 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cut into bite-size pieces
4 cloves garlic, minced
12 ounces asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1 inch pieces
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONS

1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente. Drain, and transfer to a large bowl.

2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute chicken until firm and lightly browned; remove from pan. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Cook and stir garlic, asparagus, and red pepper flakes in oil until asparagus is tender. Stir in chicken, and cook for 2 minutes to blend the flavors. Season with salt and pepper.

3. Toss pasta with chicken and asparagus mixture. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Right now gas is at an all time high! At least as far as I know! We have a gas guzzler and that is for sure! What I would love is to get a new to me car. Yes I am talking about a used car! I can not afford a new one but I also can not afford the gas prices. I am sure there are a lot of people in the same boat as I am so here I am to tell you about the used cars Wilmington NC. There are a lot of cars that they have that have better gas mileage than what I get right. Do you need a new car also? Well then give this site and place a chance.
