    List of Ingredients




    1 pound of thin spaghetti
    1 medium sized eggplant
    1 tablespoon of salt
    1 cup of onion, diced
    3 cloves of garlic, crushed
    2 chicken breasts, raw, boneless, skinless and cut into 1 inch cubes
    3 tablespoons of green olive oil
    1/4 teaspoon of crushed red pepper
    1/4 teaspoon of Italian herb seasoning
    4 Italian black olives, pitted and sliced
    1/2 cup of fresh Italian parsley, chopped
    6 large mushrooms, sliced
    1/3 cup of Romano cheese, freshly grated

    Boil water to cook the pasta. Slice the eggplant and soak in cold water and 1 tablespoon of salt for 10 minutes, rinsing often. In a large skillet or wok, sauté the onion, garlic, and chicken cubes in oil for 5 minutes with the crushed pepper and Italian herb seasoning. Drain and dry the eggplant. Cut into small cubes and add to a baking sheet. Broil for 5 minutes to brown. Add the eggplant to the chicken mixture with the olives, parsley, and mushrooms and sauté for 3 to 5 minutes. Drain the spaghetti, add it to the sauce and mix thoroughly. Sprinkle with the Romano cheese. Serve immediately.
