TERIYAKI CHICKEN TOSS WITH SPAGHETTINI PASTA

This is bar none the best stir fry I have ever tasted! All the credit goes to Sandy Richard and her cookbook Life's on Fire Cooking for the Rushed. I have strayed slightly from the original recipe but all for the sake of taste. The one thing that I'm a bit of a stickler on is that you use the V-H brand of honey-garlic sauce. If you're in an area that doesn't carry it use your choice of the next best brand.

This is a copy-cat recipe I created from a restaurant in the Bay Area. It's a soupy sauce, not a thick one. It's a nice change.

Tips:

Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will always give you the best flavor. If possible, try to use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is a delicate meat that can easily be overcooked. Cook it until it is just cooked through, or it will become dry and tough.
Use a good quality pasta: The pasta is the star of this dish, so it's important to use a good quality pasta. Look for a pasta that is made with durum wheat and has a nice, al dente texture.
Season the pasta water: Salting the pasta water is an important step that often gets overlooked. The salt helps to flavor the pasta and prevents it from becoming bland.
Don't rinse the pasta: Rinsing the pasta after it has been cooked will remove the starch, which will make it less flavorful. Instead, drain the pasta and immediately add it to the sauce.
Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really brings this dish together. Make sure you use a sauce that is flavorful and has a good balance of acidity and sweetness.
Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs can really brighten up this dish. Try garnishing it with basil, parsley, or oregano.
