Very quick & easy to make. I didn't have a green pepper on hand so I cut up a small onion and added it. Also used some dry basil on top as I was out of fresh basil. Still tasted great!

I have made this dish many times and everyone raves about it. They all want the receipe. It takes no time to make and is well worth it ENJOY I did add more chicken and garlic

I actually used canned chicken, instead of fresh chicken breasts. It was nice to have a different pasta dish than the same old red sauce.

I've made this dish numerous times for my family as well as visitors and everyone has RAVED about it. I make the following changes: used a can of basil, garlic, oregano-no salt added diced tomatoes, some red and green peppers as well as adding some sweet vidalia onions. And we use whole wheat fettucine.

I would definitely make this recipe again. It is fast and delicious. I did do one thing differently - I used petite diced tomatoes flavored with celery and peppers. This definitely is a winner!!

Very tasty and easy to make. I made it for two people, and we barely made a dent, so prepare to have left overs. I will try it again next time with zestier tomatoes (used no salt added this time) and maybe add the black olives. Great quick meal!

This was wonderful. I didn't use oil,just sprayed the pan with olive oil spay to brown chicken and proceeded, mushrooms gave off liquids. I used your Light Parmesan Asiago Balsamic Vinaigreete in place of Zesty Italian. This will be a "go too" recipe, good enough for company with some crusty bread and salad.
