Looking for a fresh idea for dinner? These 35 creative chicken pasta recipes will liven up your meal.
We eat a lot of chicken. Cilantro lime chicken. Lemon garlic chicken. Teriyaki chicken. Several nights a week find me handling raw chicken, hoping to make it exciting enough for dinner — because when you eat something that much, variety in cooking really matters.
We also love pasta. Hugely. So every so often, I try to combine the two.
