LEMON GARLIC CHICKEN OVER ANGEL HAIR PASTA



Lemon Garlic Chicken over Angel Hair Pasta image

Elegant and delicious. 2/22/09 After reading some reviews and problem of too much liquid I would suggest decreasing to perhaps 1 1/2 cups or use the pasta water which has the starch from the pasta that would provide a thickener. Also, be sure all of the flour was used to coat the chicken; that could also be a part of the problem Thanks for the all the input reviewers!
