Update: Pan Seared Garlic Chicken and Green Bean Medley over Angel Hair

In my last post, I shared that I was having some trouble trying to figure out what I wanted to cook for dinner, but when I got into my kitchen I realized that when I don't have a plan that's when my creativity really kicks into high gear and I create some of my best recipes! The dish that I made that night was a hit with everyone, and that was a blessing.

Here's What You'll Need

6 chicken tenderloins or small breasts
1/2 pound of fresh green beans
Teriyaki Sauce
5 mushrooms
3 tbs of butter
1 medium sized onion
1 tbs of minced garlic
Angel Hair Pasta

Add to Taste:
- Black Pepper
- Garlic Salt
- Season Salt

How To Prepare:

Cube the chicken and season with the pepper, season salt and 2 teaspoons of the minced garlic in olive oil over medium low heat. Once the chicken is cooked, add the mushrooms and the chopped onion. Next, bring pasta water to a rolling boil  over medium high heat, then add the angel hair to the pot. Check the pasta periodically to make sure it does not overcook. Once the pasta is to your liking, drain and run cold water over it to stop the cooking. Put the pasta back into the pot and add the 3 tbs of butter, season salt to taste and pepper to taste. Mix together and add the chicken onion and mushroom mix. In a separate pan over medium high heat add olive oil, minced garlic the green beans, and teriyaki sauce to taste and let them cook for about 10-15 minutes or until they are soft on the ends and slightly firm in the middle. After they are cooked add to the pasta mixture. Fold everything together and serve hot!!!

Hope you enjoy!!!
