Tips:

Prep before cooking: Before you start cooking, make sure all your ingredients are prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your dish comes together quickly and easily.
Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will always yield the best results. When possible, use fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices.
Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken and vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to stick to the pan.
Cook the chicken thoroughly: Make sure the chicken is cooked all the way through before adding it to the pasta. Chicken is safe to eat when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Season to taste: Don't be afraid to season your dish to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices until it reaches your desired flavor.
