From Chubbuck, Idaho, Lisa Leavitt writes, “We love Mediterranean food, so one day and I decided to attempt it at home. I was surprised by all the flavor from such little effort and cost—and also by my husband’s request for seconds!” LISA’S TIP: “I often garnish this dish with kalamata olives.”
Ingredients:
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
3 tablespoons butter
1 medium yellow summer squash, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
1 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
8 ounces uncooked angel hair pasta
1/4 cup chicken broth
3 tablespoons lemon juice
20 cherry tomatoes, halved
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
3/4 cup crumbled tomato and basil feta cheese
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook chicken in butter over medium heat until no longer pink. Add yellow squash and zucchini; cook for 3-4 minutes or until tender. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions.
2. Stir broth and lemon juice into chicken mixture. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 5 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally. Drain pasta; toss with chicken mixture and tomatoes. Sprinkle with cheeses. Yield: 5 servings.
