This recipe was a hit with my two teens. They've eaten it three dinners in a row! This was easy to make, especially since the chicken didn't have to marinate. I used Ramen noodles and spaghetti noodles and they both were good. I had some leftover sauce and drizzled over the top. I've memorized the recipe, since I'm going to be making it often!
