Lemon Chicken Pasta

Another great meal has transpired in my kitchen!  Lemon Chicken Pasta…. It may sound a tad bland to you, but it was anything but bland.  What you need:  3 chicken breasts, 4 lemons, fettuccini pasta,  1 cup milk,  1 can black sliced olives, 1 can mushrooms, 1 can tomato sauce, 1 can zesty diced tomatoes, 1 can oregano and garlic diced tomatoes, garlic powder, dried basil, flour, 1 diced small white onion, olive oil, and minced garlic.  Don’t forget parmesan cheese too!
Start the pasta first! Cut the three chicken breasts into chunks.  Marinate the chicken in 2 tablespoons minced garlic and two juiced lemons.  Brown the onions and mushrooms in a dash of olive oil.  Add the chicken chunks and continue to cook.  In a cup, mix one cup of milk and two large tablespoons of flour.  When the chicken is done, add the milk mixture.  Then stir in the can of tomato sauce, both diced tomatoes, and black olives.  Add more flour if needed to make it thicker.  Add the juice from two more lemons.  Season to taste with garlic powder and basil.  Cook on high until boiling and then cook on low for another five minutes.   Pour entire mixture over the cooked pasta and stir.  Serve with a dash of parmesan cheese on top.  Happy Cooking!!
