Very good! My husband came home and commented on how you could smell the aroma from outside! Little does he know how much I really chopped up those onions and peppers so he wouldn't notice them, he hates them. We enjoyed this dish very much; and it's a great low fat dish.

Very good. Even my 4yr old ate every bite! I used italian seasoned chicken broth instead and basil (I was out of oregano) and elbow macaroni. I will definately make this again - as requested by my daughter.

Outstanding. Tastes like something you'd order at Olive Garden or Macaroni Grill. I doubled the recipe as I have a super sized skillet and we serve 6. I did space out and used veg oil instead of olive (I had read recipe but not while cooking). I did the peppers and onions very small and started them for 5 min before I added the chicken them cooked them together. I used a whole box of Barilla bow tie pasta and cooked covered 13 min. Served with buttered brocoli and bread. I have rated alot of recipes and this is I think the 2nd time a 5 star was deserved.

So easy and so good! Served with a salad and some garlic bread. Loved the fact that everything was done in one pan and it took only minutes to make.
