Easy Chicken & Pasta

I sort of feel bad putting this one on the blog simply because it was an EASY throw together dinner.  But, I figured some people might just need ideas on what to do on a Monday night when you really just don't feel like cooking!  This is the meal for you!!  It's tossing a few items together - and has potential to be better if you add some veggies (I meant to but was too tired and forgot!).


Ingredients:
Pasta (I used fettuccine)
4-5 Chicken tenders
Jarred pasta sauce (I used Vodka sauce)
1 egg
1/3 cup corn starch
Salt / pepper to taste
Olive Oil

Directions
Place egg in one shallow bowl (beaten) and corn starch in another shallow bowl with some Salt & Pepper mixed in
Rinse chicken tenders in cold water and pat dry
Heat olive oil in pan over medium high heat
Dip chicken in egg then in corn starch
Place chicken in pan and heat through, turning a few times
After removing from heat, cut chicken into bite sized pieces
Put chicken on plate with paper towel and set aside
Meanwhile, boil water and cook pasta according to package
In a separate small pot, add sauce and cook on low until heated through
Combine all ingredients and toss
