Chicken is the only meat we eat once or twice in a month. And i mostly prepare a curry or Biryani every time. But because of my Blog and readers' request I started trying few other chicken recipes like Chicken Kebab, Chicken Cutlets and this Chicken Pasta. Chicken Pasta is something unusual and new recipe which i tried it for the first time with my own recipe, this is completely not a Indian version & not a fusion too. Its a simple and yummy Chicken Pasta with mild spices which is perfect for kids. This chicken pasta turned out so good and my kids loved it a lot. I added only couple of tablespoons of carrot and capsicum to make it more filling and colorful. You can add your desired veggies or make it a plain chicken pasta. Now off to the recipe
*Chicken Masala Powder can be replaced with Garam masala or curry powder.
For veggie version, instead of chicken you can use Mushrooms or Soy chunks.
With the same method instead of Pasta you can also use Hakka Noodles for Chicken Noodles.
Likewise you can use desired pasta or spaghetti.
