Asian Style Chicken, Broccoli and Ziti

Submitted by Nancy G.

"If you like the "normal" chic, broc, ziti recipe but would like a tasty variation, this recipe will work nicely for you. Also great to make ahead the 3 main ingredients (cook the ziti, steam the broccoli and cook the chicken) and then combine and heat when ready to serve. The marinating takes the longest to do but once that's done, this dish comes together quickly."

The marinade alone makes for a five! Made as posted using parmesan cheese. So easy - so good - a company quality meal! Served this with Caesar Salad and garlic bread. No left overs! The marinade makes wonderful tasting grilled chicken. A real all around winner at our house. Thank you Nancy.
