TUXEDO CHICKEN

Tuxedo Chicken image

Thsi is from the "Desperation Dinners" cookbook. Don't ask me why the name - possibly because of the bowties? Well, in that case, it shold be called "Men's Formal Wear Accessory Chicken." Anyway, it's easy to put together and the sauce is very tasty.

Ingredients

6 cups bow tie pasta
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves

Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet.

Remove the chicken from the skillet with a slotted spoon and set aside.

Place a serving of bowties on a plate. Top with the chicken mixture and enjoy.
