Tips:

  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices not only adds flavor but also helps tenderize the meat. Be sure to let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, for the best results.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat helps ensure that it cooks evenly and doesn't dry out. Be patient and resist the urge to turn the chicken too often, as this can make it tough.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for a variety of vegetables, including zucchini, bell peppers, and onions. Feel free to use other vegetables that you have on hand, such as broccoli, carrots, or mushrooms.
  • Cook the vegetables until they are tender-crisp: You don't want the vegetables to be too soft or mushy, so cook them until they are just tender-crisp. This will give them a nice texture and flavor.
  • Use a good quality pasta: The type of pasta you use can make a big difference in the overall dish. Choose a good quality pasta that is made from durum wheat and has a slightly chewy texture.
  • Cook the pasta according to the package directions: Be sure to cook the pasta according to the package directions, as this will ensure that it is cooked properly.
