Title: Chicken and Pasta in Ginger Sauce
Categories: Polkadot, Lisa, Chicken, Low-fat/cal, Hot/spicy
Yield: 4 Servings
2 Boneless, skinless chicken
-breasts; halved
8 oz Spaghetti; uncooked
1 Chicken bouillon cube
1 md Red bell pepper;
-trimmed and cut into strips
1 lg Leek; white part only,
-trimmed and cut in 1"
-half rounds
Olive oil
Put the leek and pepper in a large skillet with a little bit of olive
oil. Saute for about 3 minutes, just until the vegetables begin to
wilt. Remove vegetables from the skillet and set aside. Add chicken
to the skillet (and more olive oil, if necessary), and cook in the
vegetable juices until no longer pink. Add the sauce to the skillet.
Bring to a boil, and simmer on low heat for about 5 minutes. Prick
the chicken with a fork, to let the juices seep in. Add the
vegetables back into the skillet and cook for an additional 5
minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
While the chicken is simmering, bring a large pot of water to a boil
over high heat. Dissolve the bouillon cube in the water. Add the
spaghetti, and cook to desired doneness.
Transfer the pasta to a serving bowl. Arrange the chicken and
vegetables and sauce on top, and enjoy!
Notes from the Chef:
"I can't believe I never posted this here - it's one of my favorite
meals. I was looking for it in MMDOOR, because I wanted to repost it,
but it wasn't there, since it turns out I never posted it in the first
place! ANyway, here it is. I based it on another recipe, which was
also good, and I'll post that one after this. Oh, by the way, I was
out of honey this time, so I substitited an equal amount of brown
sugar. It tasted just as good." - Lisa
