Pesto Pasta with Chicken

This is an old favorite, from waaaaayyyyyy back when....and the original recipe calls for refrigerated ravioli, but I can't use that anymore, so we make do with Tinkyada...

drizzle olive oil
15ish oz chicken tenders
3/4 cup water and 1 tsp Better Than Boullion Chicken flavor
9 oz noodles, penne, elbow, corkscrew, etc, cooked and drained.

3 small zucchini, sliced
1 large red bell pepper, sliced
1/4 cup pesto

lots and lots of fresh grated parmesan cheese

cook chicken in oil until brown, add zucchini, and pepper, cook until veggies are tender crisp, add broth, noodles, cook just till heated, and chicken is done. Toss with pesto and cheese.....gobble up.

can easily substitute broccoli or whatever veggie your hoodlums like....
