Ingredients
1/2 lb. chicken breast or tenders2 medium red bell peppers (yields 2 cups)2 heads broccoli crowns (yields 2 cups)1 box rigatoni pasta (16 oz.)2 T. olive oil1/2 c. soy sauce1 tsp. ground ginger1 1/2 c. warm water2 T. white floursalt and pepper to taste
Directions
Put a pot of water on to boil to cook pasta as directed on package until "al dente". Wash and chop peppers into 2-inch chunks or strips. Wash and cut broccoli into bite-size pieces (You may use stems but I prefer the crowns). Sprinkle salt & pepper on each side of chicken in 2 T. olive oil until cooked through. Salt and pepper each side lightly while cooking.
While chicken is cooking, mix soy sauce and warm water together. Add flour and whisk until blended. Add ginger.
Remove chicken from pan, set aside and cover. Dump out excess oil and put pan back on stove. Place broccoli, peppers and soy sauce mixture into the pan. Bring to a boil then reduce heat, stirring often, until veggies are steamed and tender but not mushy (about 7-8 minutes). Cut chicken into chunks and add to veggies while cooking to soak in the soy flavor. Once cooked, add pasta to pan (or dump into pasta pot), mix together and enjoy! Sauce will thicken a little upon standing.
Makes about 8- 8 pz.servings.
