List of Ingredients




1 tablespoon olive oil
4 cloves garlic, sliced
1/2 pound chicken breasts, skinned and boneless
7 ripe tomatoes, cut in quarters (we used plum tomatoes and chopped
them smaller)
1 large green pepper, sliced
1 large yellow pepper, sliced
1 large onion or 12 green onions, sliced
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 pound pasta of your choice (we used seashells, but penne or
linguine would do nicely)
1 small zucchini, sliced (optional)
Parmesan or Romano cheese, to taste


Recipe



Boil water for pasta. Cook pasta according to package directions.

Meanwhile, cut vegetables and set aside in bowl.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven. Add garlic and chicken breast. Remove chicken when nicely browned on both sides. Add vegetables to skillet and reduce heat.

Cut chicken into slices and add to vegetables. Cook sauce until most of the liquid is absorbed (about 30 minutes). In last 5 minutes of cooking, add the cilantro. (Mahoney says amount of cilantro can be adjusted to taste. If fresh is not available, use less of the dried.)

Drain pasta and top with sauce. Top with the cheese.

Makes 4 to 6 generous servings.
