Chicken "Scampi" with Angel Hair

As promised, the recipe for the leftover chicken. Don't recognize it, do you?



















Shred the chicken you have leftover from the fabulous roasted chicken you made. In a frying pan with olive oil, add 1 small, thinly sliced red bell pepper, 1-1/2 tbsp balsamic vinegar, cook until softened and add two cloves minced garlic. Add 1 large thin sliced shallot and 1 tbsp butter until garlic is soft, add crushed red pepper if desired for heat. Stir in shredded chicken, a handful of diced parsley, mix and cook on low heat. Add black pepper to taste. Cook angel hair pasta according to directions, top with chicken and vegetables mixture and add Parmesan, toss to coat noodles with oil. There you go, wasn't too hard was it? And you didn't have to waste any chicken.
