Farfalle with Chicken and Spinach

1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast halves (cut into bite-sized chunks)

1/4 tsp. black pepper, divided


3 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil

Sprinkle chicken with 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/8 tsp. black pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, and pepper. Cook and stir 5-7 minutes or until chicken is almost cooked through. Add chicken broth, spinach, mushrooms and remaining salt and pepper. Cook until spinach is wilted and chicken is cooked through. Add more salt and pepper if needed. Meanwhile, cook the Farfalle according the directions on the box. Drain and return to pot. Add the chicken mixture to the hot Farfalle and toss.

no, so you should google it and i'm sure you'll find a ton of recipes...


goodluck!=)
go to http://www.foodnetwork.com and do a search for farfalle recipes. Although, I think you are already excluding some of the best ingredients.
What I made for dinner was pretty good...here goes:





I took some thawed boneless skinless chicken thighs (I say thawed because it is cheaper to buy those big bags of them in the freezer section) and sliced them into strips. About 6 thighs, I guess.





In a hot pan with just enough canola oil to coat the bottom, I saute'd the chicken with some salt, pepper, a little garlic powder and a little onion powder. I let this all cook until the chicken juices cooked out of it and the chicken strips actually browned. I then added about a cup of chicken broth with a tablespoon of corn starch mixed in. stir until thickened slightly.





In the meantime, I cooked a pound of pasta (Farfalle would have been fine) in boiling salted water until al dente (just done, not soggy). Drain. Return pasta to pot. put about 2 tablespoons butter/margarine so it won't stick.





Add the chicken mixture to the drained pasta. toss well and serve with salad and breadsticks.
This is easy and good.

Saute until all the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add the peas and saute for 4 minutes. Return the meat to the pan and cook for another 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.





When the pot of water has come to a boil, add pasta and cook until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain in a colander. Return pasta to the pot and add the meat mixture. Combine thoroughly and gently cook over medium heat for 5 minutes. Drizzle in remaining olive oil. If the mixture is dry, do not hesitate to use more olive oil if necessary. Check the seasoning.
