I’ve been on a cooking kick recently and have come up with a series of recipes that are tasty, cheap, and nutritious. Here’s one such dish.

• Skinless, boneless chicken breast
• Whole-wheat spaghetti noodles
• Red chili pepper flakes
• Garlic (either powder or fresh)
• Salt

Here’s how to prep:

1. Cook up the chicken breasts. Since I’ve got a Costco membership, I like to buy the bags of Kirkland frozen chicken breasts, as they yield 2kg worth. I’d recommend buying at least 400g worth of chicken breasts and cooking them all up at the same time. From frozen, bake in the oven for approx. 30 minutes at 400F.
2. At the same time, cook up the spaghetti noodles. As with the chicken, I like to cook a lot of it up at the same time so it’s ready to go when I need to throw a meal together quickly. Whole wheat noodles boiled should take 8-10 minutes.
3. After cooking the noodles, strain them. Once the excess water is removed, set aside and (optionally) let cool.
4. After cooking the chicken breasts, take one or two and cut into thin pieces, width-wise.
5. Get out the frying pan, put in some olive oil, and crank the heat to approximately medium (electric). When the oil is up to temperature, throw in some noodles, and the sliced up chicken.
6. Sprinkle on some red chili pepper flakes, garlic, and salt. Cook 3-5 minutes.
7. Plate, and serve.

I’ll post some pictures of this dish the next time I make it. Enjoy!

(Note: the directions to making this dish are a little vague, I know. It’s moreso a dish I threw together when I ran out of spaghetti sauce. It’s delicious though.)
