Chicken Piccata Pasta image

I came up with this recipe while contemplating what to do with leftover chicken. It turned out so good, I had to post it to preserve it. I didn't add all of the cooked pasta to the pan so I could preserve some for kids, and because I like a lot of sauce to cover my noodles.
