This is a lovely pasta dish. I made this as directed, but substituted roasted red bell peppers for the tomatoes and added some crushed red pepper flakes to the sauce. This dish has lots of wonderful fresh ingredients and it's recommended that you have them prepped and ready to go as this dish comes together rather quickly. I also saved on the clean-up. When the chicken was done, I put it into the pot that the pasta was cooked in (I just wiped it with a clean dishtowel first). Then when the veggies were done, I placed it in with the chicken and gave a quick toss to blend. When the sauce was done, I added the pasta and half the chicken/veggie mixture and gently mixed to coat. I then poured that into the bowl that was keeping the pasta warm, and topped it with the remaining chicken/veggie mix for a wonderful presentation. I served this with some garlic bread. We enjoyed the uniqueness of using artichokes which gave it great flavor. Thanks for sharing!

I love to collect cookbooks. I especially like to find old cookbooks at thrift stores and garage sales. Some of the best recipes I've tried are from the little cookbooks you can buy by the checkstand at the grocery store. As most cooks have, I've been collecting recipes from newspapers, magazines, friends, etc. for the past 25+ years. I'm currently in the process of organizing them into binders (not a small task). It's great seeing again what I've collected and finding recipes I haven't tried in years, discovering how my tastes have changed, or finding those that I wanted to try but haven't because they've been buried in the file cabinet for so long. I'll have to live to be 150 to try all the recipes I've saved but haven't yet tried.
