Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (13.25 ounce) package linguine noodles
2 Tablespoons butter
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into bite-size pieces)
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 yellow onion (diced)
2 green bell peppers (diced)
1 3/4 cups teriyaki sauce
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon paprika
2 cups broccoli florets (steamed)

Steps:

Cook the linguine noodles according to the directions on the package.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter. Add the chicken and cook until chicken turns white and is no longer pink on the inside (takes about 8-10 minutes).
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add olive oil over medium heat.
Add the onion and bell pepper and saute until soft (about 8 minutes).
Once the vegetables are done, add the cooked chicken back to the skillet.
Add in the sauce, minced garlic and paprika. Stir well. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook for 5-8 more minutes, or until marinade is thoroughly heated and slightly thickened.
Fold in steamed broccoli.
When linguine is done cooking drain the water and then add noodles into the chicken/sauce mixture.
Stir to combine and serve.
