Chicken and Snow Pea Pasta
- 8 ounces farfalle (bow tie) pasta
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, diced
- 2 cups fresh snow peas, trimmed
- 4 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup black bean sauce with garlic
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds (optional)
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Once the water is boiling, stir in the bow tie pasta and return to a boil.
- Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
- Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
- Cook and stir the chicken breast meat until no longer pink, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Remove from skillet.
- Cook and stir the snow peas and green onions until the pea pods are slightly softened and bright green, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, and stir the black bean sauce and peanut butter into the vegetables until well combined.
- Stir the chicken and bow tie pasta into the vegetable mixture, and allow to heat through, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
