Ingredients

    Chicken Thighs, 6 thighs, bone and skin removed cubed.
    Artichoke Hearts marinated in oil, 70 gram(s) or 2.5 cups (drained)
    Water 1/4 cup
    Vinegar 1tbs
    Garlic, 3 cloves minced

    Asparagus

Directions

Cube chicken thighs and place in a bowl or plastic zip lock bag. Mix dressing mix, vinegar and water in a bowl. Pour Italian dressing mix over meat and let sit for at least 30 minutes. (I usually do this the night before and just leave it in the fridge). Heat margarine in a pan over medium heat. Cook Chicken until cooked through. Drain artichoke hearts, pimentos and capers and add to pan. Cut asparagus into 1 inch pieces and add to pan. Add the garlic. Stir fry until veggies are fully cooked but still crisp. Heat water and cook the pasta as directed on the package. Serve the chicken over the pasta.

Makes six servings.
