PENNE WITH CHICKEN, SUN-DRIED TOMATOES AND PINE NUTS



Penne With Chicken, Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Pine Nuts image

This pasta dish looks and tastes great. It looks stunning served in bowls or large, restaurant-like plates. I love sun-dried tomatoes and fresh basil! The pine nuts add a nice touch. Roast the pine nuts in a skillet on low heat. Watch the nuts as they turn brown (and then black) suddenly. Serve this tasty dish with fresh parmesan cheese and a glass of wine.
