Pasta Primavera - any gemelli (cork screw) type of pasta. Saute red, greeen, yellow peppers. Saute broccoli and califlower. Do all of this in olive oil with garlic. When the veges are somewhat soft (to your liking) add cooked, hot pasta. Add pre-made pesto sauce (Costco). You can mix some anchovy paste in, you really don't taste the fish but it adds a great flavor. Add chunks of chicken and you have Pasta/chicken primavera! Serve with garlic bread and cheap red wine.

Answer 6

heat up a sauce pan with olive oil(extra virgin) add some garlic and like 2-3 strips of anchovies (promise you will not taste fish at all but you will get this smoky flavor ) (when you add anchovies to hot oil it will melt away you will not even see it) then add some red pepper chili flakes......next add like 2 cans of chopped tomato and cook till it is thick (water from tomato has evaporated) then add fresh basil and Greek olives (KALAMATA) you can find at any supermarket just pour over pasta you can even add like shrimp to it.... grilled chicken.... breaded chicken...... i have a restaurant and this is one of the most popular dishes there i have been in business for 10 years now (don't forget to add salt and pepper to taste you can even use dried oregano but stick to fresh basil and don't cook to much after putting in the basil) hope you enjoy it .............
