Chicken pasta

Chicken pasta in desi style, doesn’t need any pasta sauce, and its ideal for lunch / tiffin boxes. Elders as well as kids love to eat this pasta.

Here I have added chicken and capsicum, but we can also make it completely veg by adding veggies like carrots, beans, broccoli, mushrooms etc.
