Ingredients

1/3 cup walnuts
1 small garlic clove peeled
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1/4 cup chicken broth, low salt
2 tablespoons parsley leaves finely chopped fresh
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon walnut oil or extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces chicken breast halves, boneless and skinless trimmed of fat, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
4 ounces pasta whole-wheat farfalle
1 cup broccoli florets smal
1/2 each sweet red bell pepper seeded and cut into thin strips

Directions

Put a large saucepan of water on to boil.

Combine walnuts, garlic, salt, pepper and cayenne in a blender; pulse until finely chopped.

Blend in broth, parsley and lemon juice until smooth and creamy.

Heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

Add chicken and cook, stirring often, until it is no longer pink in the middle, 3 to 5 minutes.

Cook pasta for 5 minutes.

Add broccoli and bell pepper, cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta and vegetables are just tender, about 4 minutes more.

Drain, return to the pot.

Add the walnut sauce and chicken; toss to coat.

Foolproof Chocolate Fudge

This REALY is fool-proof! I made it in about 20 minutes, let it cool, and It tasted pretty good! My wife was amazed, and my son couldn't get enough of it! I'll make it again!
