Pasta with chicken and vegetables
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Here are my tips for the recipe for chicken and vegetable pasta: use a deep non-stick pan or sauté pan if possible. While simmering the vegetables and pasta, make sure the water doesn't completely evaporate—adjust the heat so that some liquid remains at the bottom of the pan, as it will later become the base for the sauce. Otherwise, everything is quite simple—you'll figure it out :) Good luck with your cooking! The dish is ready to be served.

Step 1
Season the chicken breast on both sides with salt and pepper. Finely chop the onion, cut broccoli into florets, slice the bell pepper into strips, and grind the sun-dried tomatoes and garlic through a meat grinder.

Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive (sunflower) oil in a skillet and sear the chicken breasts on both sides, about 2 minutes per side, until not fully cooked through—chicken should still be slightly undercooked in the center. Set the chicken breasts aside.

Step 3
Add 1 tablespoon of olive (sunflower) oil to the same skillet and, over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion for 3–5 minutes until soft. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add the pepper, season again with salt and pepper, and cook for about 2 minutes.

Step 4
Add the pasta, chicken broth, and water to the skillet. Bring to a boil and season with salt. Now place the chicken in the center of the skillet, cover with a lid, and cook until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches about 160-165 degrees.

Step 5
Once ready, remove the chicken from the pan and set aside. Cook the paste for about 15 minutes total, until it has absorbed all the liquid.

Step 6
Add broccoli and sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, cover with a lid, and simmer for about 5 minutes, until the broccoli is almost tender. Reduce the heat to medium, remove the lid, and cook for another 3 minutes. Add lemon juice or white wine, then pour in the cream and sprinkle with grated Parmesan. Simmer for about 2 more minutes, then slice the chicken and place it on top of the pasta.
