DH liked this a lot.
I made a halfish recipe for two.
- Didn't cut the chicken in half horizontally, but smashed it flat.
- Used casareccia instead of penne.
- Used the remains of a can of tomato pulp instead of tomato sauce.
- Put the frozen peas in the colander where the pasta would be drained.

Because I was making a half recipe, the tomato sauce pretty close to evaportaed; it certainly didn't need to simmer for 10min.

Very tasty.
