You'll love the way the nutmeg in this pretty pasta dish blends with the cayenne pepper. I usually double the recipe because I like the leftovers even better! This entree is especially good serve with homemade pesto bread. -Vicky Root Greenville, Ohio

This recipe was a bit more time-consuming than I expected, but it was worth it. The chicken was cooked evenly and the vegetables were still slightly crispy.
