I drained the noodles and added them to the sauce and chicken. Then i lowered my heat and put in the frozen vegs and covered it. By the time garlic bread was done, 7 minutes, it was all hot.

Relatively simple but definitely not delicious. Edible is the best I can say about this. Started to make this recipe exactly as written, with the exception of slightly less red pepper because it was all I had. First: Ziti typically takes 9-10 minutes to cook al dente so 7-8 minutes is plain hard - it needs at least 11-12 minutes. Pasta also needs to be in liquid to cook, so this needed constant stirring to bring the pasta on top into contact with lkiquid (as in, there is not enough liquid to cook it in). Plan on 15 minutes minimum to get it all cooked. Tasted the \"sauce\" about 3\/4 through the cooking time and it was totally underseasoned, and bland, bland, bland! Regular sodium broth would perhaps help that. Added more garlic, some edamane and snow peas for flavor. Not sure what the milk\/chicken broth \"sauce\" was supposed to be but it was watery and bland. After it was finally cooked added three Italian cheeses (Parmesan, Romano, and Asiago) which saved it somewhat. Husband liked it with all of the last minute modifications. Adult daughter did not like the chicken cut into strips as it made it more difficult to eat. If you are going to put the chicken into the pan, cut into bite size chuncks. Better: make nice parmesan-crusted chicken breasts, cook the ziti and vegetables separately and make a real light alfredo or cheese sauce. When done top the pasta with the cooked vegetables, and sauce. Use as a side dish to the chicken.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":1,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2011-03-07","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"CyanStrawberry"},"reviewBody":"My family devoured this dish.
