Steps:

Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in 2 batches, add chicken and sauté until cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer chicken to bowl. Add onions to skillet and sauté until tender and golden, about 9 minutes. Add coriander, salt, black pepper, and cayenne and sauté 3 minutes. Add cream, walnuts, almonds, and chicken broth; simmer 2 minutes. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.
Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite. Drain well. Return to pot.
