The Yummy Chicken Recipe Holly1368 / All my dishes

This chicken dish is my go-to when I need to get dinner on the table quick. It is healthy and pretty easy to make. When I tell my kids we are having chicken for dinner they ask,"Is it the yummy chicken"?

Ingredients
  • 4 chicken breasts cut into bite sized cubes
  • 1 TBS extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsps fresh thyme or 1tsp ground
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 3/4 of a box of pasta (ie. penne,castellane,bowties,work well)
  • 2 medium carrots grated
  • 1 16oz pkg. of frozen brocolli florets
  • 3-6 cloves of garlic minced (I like a lot of garlic in this recipe)
  • 2 cups chicken stock (homemade is best but use what you have :)
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
  • 6 fresh basil leaves torn

Directions
  1. Put 4 quarts of water on to boil in your favorite pasta pot, when the water boils add pasta and cook according to package directions. Then drain.
  2. While the pasta is cooking:
  3. Sprinkle chicken with paprika,onion powder,thyme,salt and pepper,evenly coating all sides.(I don't measure when I cook,so the measurements for the spices are approximate if you need a little more then go for it)
  4. In a deep fry pan saute half chicken in the olive oil until golden brown and no longer pink.
  5. Remove chicken from the pan and drain on paper towels. Saute the rest of the chicken and drain.
  6. Add a little more olive oil if needed and cook carrots for 4 minutes.
  7. Add brocolli and garlic and cook 2 minutes. Stirring to coat the broccolli with the garlic.
  8. Stir in the stock scraping up all the browned bits off the bottom of the pan.
  9. Add in the parmesan cheese and basil. Stir.
  10. Return the chicken to the pan and simmer 6 minutes.
  11. Add cooked pasta and toss.
  12. At this point I will serve my kids and to the remaining pasta I will toss in hot pepper flakes to taste for my husband and myself. Gives the dish a nice kick.
  13. Enjoy with some nice crusty bread warmed in the oven.

This sounds good & easy. If you like easy stuff check out the recipe for 'Chicken Noodle I don't know'...My husband thought of the combination and we didn't quite know what to call it...Jett
