1-2-3 Pasta

It's already been a busy week and it's only Tuesday!

Wanting to make a no-fuss but healthy and tasty dinner, I whipped up a simple, 3-step dish. 
Fresh pasta with chicken and veggies in a light white wine sauce - nice and light, perfect for summer.

I got out my main ingredients:
  • fresh pasta
  • vidalia onion (chopped)
  • red and green bell pepper (cut into bite-size pieces)
  • spinach
  • chicken (cut into bite-size pieces)
  • olive oil
  • white wine
and got down to business.

Step 1: Lightly coat chicken in some flour and cook in a pan with some olive oil.
In a separate pan, saute onions and peppers in olive oil. Boil salted water for pasta.



Step 2: Once chicken is cooked through, pour the onion/pepper mix into the chicken pan. Now get out your wine and pour so that you have enough liquid to have as your "sauce. " Boil off the alcohol by turning up the heat for a few minutes. Add some salt, pepper, oregano, and garlic (or whatever spices you chooses!) to your "sauce."




Step 3: Cook your pasta. Add some spinach to the "sauce" pan and let in wilt and mix in. Your "sauce" should be thickened and a light brown color by now.


Once your pasta is cooked, drain and plate it.



Pour your chicken, veggies and sauce on top.


 And sprinkle with some parm cheese.


Serve with some warm, toasty bread.

And dig in!

Simple, quick, and tasty.
