Next Sautee' Chicken in a pan with 2 Tbsp of EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil). Cook until Chicken is done (no pinkness).In another pan, start sauteeing the vegetables with 1 clove of garlic and 2 Tbsp of EVOO. Sprinkle 2 pinches salt on vegetables while cooking. When the chicken is done, add it to the pan with the vegetables and let the two simmer together on low heat. In another pan, pour 2 cups of Skim Milk in the pan on medium heat. When the milk is heated, pour 1 cup of grated parmesan cheese slowly while stirring. Make sure to stir thourougly because the milk and cheese can stick to the bottom of the pan. Once the cheese is melted, add 4 Tbsp of flour to thicken the sauce. (use more if you want it thicker or less if you want it thinner). When the sauce is done, pour it over the chicken and veggies. Mix everything together. Then fold in the pasta.Let everything sit for about 5 mins to cool down and thicken.
