Dustin decided to cook tonight (& he did the dishes!!)

Dustin, my husband, decided to cook tonight!! I love when he cooks (its nice to sit back and watch). I have noticed over time that 9x out of 10 he will cook everything together (in one pan/pot) (well he doesn't like some foods mixed- but some he does it weird :) ) - I have came to the conclusion that this is because it doesn't create as big of a mess as it does when I cook! Seriously- he barely had any dirty dishes! He likes using our 12 inch skillet because it cleans up so well and holds a ton of food in it! Well, I don't know what to even call his creation- all i know is that it was good and the kids ate it all up! serves 5! here's the ingredients

One bag of frozen mixed veggies (he used asparagus mix)
1/2 chopped onion
3 cloves of garlic minced
2 cups of chicken broth
A little Italian herbs pampered chef seasoning
3 uncooked chicken breast diced up
Penne pasta (like 1/2 box 8 oz)
2 cups of water

Pasta sauce of choice
Parmesan cheese if desired

Directions
- put veggies, onions , garlic and broth and seasoning in large skillet (mines the executive 12 inch from pampered chef)
- let cook for 5-10 minutes until nice and hot
-add chicken stir and cover with lid checking and stirring occasionally
-once chicken is cooked (turns white) add pasta and 2 cups of water (to cover pasta) cook for additional 12 minutes (he let it boil for the 12 minutes)

Now use something to drain it and put it on the plate add sauce cheese etc! We used the scoop and drain from pampered chef!
