Recipe - Chicken And Pasta In Ginger Sauce

2 Boneless, skinless chicken
breasts, halved
8 ounce Spaghetti, uncooked
1 Chicken bouillon cube
1 md Red bell pepper,
trimmed and cut into strips
1 lg Leek, white part only,
trimmed and cut in 1inch
half rounds
Olive oil

THE SAUCE
1 teaspoon Garlic powder
3 teaspoon Ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon Crushed rep pepper flakes
1 teaspoon Dried thyme
2 teaspoon Lime juice
3 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoon Soy sauce
2 tablespoon Rice vinegar
One fourth cup White cooking wine
2 teaspoon Honey

Combine the sauce ingredients, and set aside.

Put the leek and pepper in a large skillet with a little bit of olive oil.
Saute for about 3 minutes, just until the vegetables begin to wilt. Remove
vegetables from the skillet and set aside. Add chicken to the skillet (and
more olive oil, if necessary), and cook in the vegetable juices until no
longer pink. Add the sauce to the skillet. Bring to a boil, and simmer on
low heat for about 5 minutes. Prick the chicken with a fork, to let the
juices seep in. Add the vegetables back into the skillet and cook for an
additional 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

While the chicken is simmering, bring a large pot of water to a boil over
high heat. Dissolve the bouillon cube in the water. Add the spaghetti,
and cook to desired doneness.

Transfer the pasta to a serving bowl. Arrange the chicken and vegetables
and sauce on top, and enjoy!

Notes from the Chef: "I can't believe I never posted this here it's one
of my favorite meals. I was looking for it in MMDOOR, because I wanted to
repost it, but it wasn't there, since it turns out I never posted it in the
first place! ANyway, here it is. I based it on another recipe, which was
also good, and I'll post that one after this. Oh, by the way, I was out of
honey this time, so I substitited an equal amount of brown sugar. It tasted
just as good." Lisa
