I found this recipe during random search for an idea for simple chicken pasta dish. I've decided that the base idea was great, so I've added few more ingredients (slightly goldened with peppers first): few string beans, few white mushrooms ( I think I could have added more greens, and it would not spoil it). Used the breasts as instructed, but from store-purchased rotisserie chicken, and then left on the skillet together with pasta for few more minutes for chicken to worm-up and blend in with oil and vinegar. Added bean sprouts, scallions and fresh herbs before serving. Served as a hot dish covered with grated cheese. Both my wife and kids totally loved it. Wife went for seconds.. and then for thirds. Thanks for a great idea. Shluft.
