Dinner in a pinch. A pinch of this and a pinch of that!!! This is one of those dishes that fills your home with the fragrance of love. There is nothing quite like a kitchen kicking out the smell of home cooking. These types of meals tend to make memories around the table. Some simple ingredients and not a ton of effort or time in the kitchen.
Now to get that kind of result knowing how the night sometimes starts is truly incredible, like I mentioned before this is "dinner in a pinch". Here's what I started with: Almost thawed free-range chicken breast and thighs. Broccoli that needed to be used today, or else! and Penne pasta. I remembered of course that slicing chicken that is completely thawed can be difficult to keep thin, so here's a tip: Don't thaw the chicken all the way, and if it's already thawed, put it in the freezer for 15 minutes before slicing. It's easier and more stable to cut into thinner slices.
