I make this really easy dish when I'm being lazy
Take bonless skinless chicken breasts,add, salt, pepper, garlic powder and sautee in EVOO or butter
Add lemon juice and set aside
Then boil any pasta of your choice, I usually use penne, angel hair or ziti
while the pasta is just about 2 min away from being al dente, I throw in some broccoli florets in the pasta water and cook for 2 min
Then top the pasta and broccoli with chicken and pour your favorite alfredo sauce on top and top with parmesean cheese.
Quick and yummy!
poach some small chicken breast in chicken stock until just tender. Open jar of green pesto sauce put into pan - add some of the chicken stock to make the sauce slightly runnier and heat.. Cut the chicken breasts into cubes add to the sauce for a couple of minutes.
Boil some pasta - penne, bows etc and voila. Dead easy. You can sprinkle stuff over the top if you want - basil, parmesan, parsley etc
