Garlic Pasta with Chicken & Red Bell Pepper

Do you ever find yourself planning a meal around one ingredient? That happened to me the other day. Instead of giving up on the lone red bell pepper I had sitting in the fridge, I found a really delicious recipe that saved the day. Click here to view the full recipe.


 Garlic Butter Pasta with Chicken and Red Bell Pepper





I substituted the crab with chicken, used less butter, and didn't use pine nuts. The great thing about recipes is that there is (usually) room for adjustments. I loved the taste of the garlic butter sauce, and the red pepper was a great compliment to the overall flavor of the dish. I highly recommend!




Try using whole wheat pasta. It's healthier for you, and tastes just as good as regular pasta.




Do you have any tips/recipes for cooking with bell peppers?

  6. I sometimes will make filled-peppers, I'll fill them with rice, mushrooms, carrots- etc, and put them on the BBQ to roast up a bit = super yummy!
