Bang Bang Chicken & Pasta


Here's another recipe from my fabulous friend Gianna! I adapted some of it. Scott was basically licking his plate clean. This sauce would be great on shrimp, fish, chicken tenders, pretty much anything! 

Ingredients:

  • your favorite pasta (I used linguine)
  • 3-5 boneless chicken breast, cubed
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • chopped parsley for garnish
for the sauce:
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp Thai sweet chili sauce
  • 1/2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp sriracha sauce
  • 1 tbsp lime juice or sweet and sour sauce



Directions:

1. Lightly grease a saute pan and turn stove to medium high. Add garlic and cook until aroma of the garlic comes out. Add in chicken pieces and cook until chicken is cooked through and slightly browned.
2. In a large pot, add water and bring to a boil. Add pasta and cook until done. Drain out water when pasta is finished.
3. While pasta is cooking, prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, make the sauce by combining all ingredients and mixing with a whisk until smooth. 
4. Add chicken to pasta. Pour 2/3 of the sauce into the hot pasta and toss. Slightly warm the remaining sauce (microwave is fine). Dish out pasta onto plates and add remaining sauce on top. Garnish with parsley if you want to be fancy!

Enjoy!!

just a little project







Just decided to do a little project for my house and new office! Some of these are real, and some are fake! I love that you can't tell which are the fake ones! I'm always in search of indoor plants. I haven't always been the best at keeping them alive, but I'm getting better and better. 

I got the real ones from my beautiful friend's bridal shower that I attended this weekend. It was such an amazing weekend. She got some awesome stuff from her shower and we had such a blast later that night for her bachelorette! She's a wonderful friend from college. I'm so lucky to be in her wedding Memorial Day weekend! 

I'm looking for some food to whip up in the kitchen! Any requests? I really want to make homemade pasta but I'm kind of nervous!! 

Well this post has been all over the place! I hope you all have a great week!!
