Curry Chicken and Pasta

Submitted by donniestaggs

"If you like pasta, this is a great alternative to traditional Italian. This recipe is from rossipasta.com. They have all the hard to find flavored pastas (I used curry linguini). The version below was made to my liking which increased the curry and veggies. You can prepare the chicken however you like (whole cut up, boneless, grilled, smoked etc.). I had some whole smoked beer can chicken so I de-boned and cubed 1 pound."

This dish was delicious! Next time I will cut down the oil, though, for health's sake.
