Once the water comes to a boil for your pasta, this is done in a snap! A bit of cooked chicken, and a few other ingredients you SHOULD have in your fridge, dinner will be served in a few minutes. Guess what? It's a 'skinny' recipe as well, using greek yogurt instead of the usual heavy cream. I don't follow those usually, but it doesn't hurt to save a few calories here and there... I used whole wheat penne along with the rest of the healthy ingredients... Ok, this is good. VERY good. And the longer it has sat, more flavor has developed... Definitely a 'do again'. YOU should definitely check it out!
