For a richer flavor, marinate the chicken in Italian dressing for at least 30 minutes before cooking. Feel free to substitute other vegetables based on your preference or what's in season. Bell peppers, broccoli, or spinach would all be excellent additions. If you prefer a creamier sauce, stir in a tablespoon of cream cheese or mascarpone along with the pasta. To add a touch of freshness, garnish with chopped fresh basil or parsley before serving.
