pappardelle with summer vegetables and ricotta

one day at work last month, i happened to go over to our sister organization for an installation, and i watched this great show, the chew, with my friend and sort-of coworker lindsay.  it is seriously a fantastic show - and how can it not be with clinton kelly and mario batali, among others?!


i was so excited to make it, that i put it on twitter and clinton kelly retweeted me!  
it was seriously cool :)

lindsay came over to have it with me last week, [it was actually during this meal that we decided on our spontaneous ryder cup adventure], and it was delicious!

i'm not even going to bother to replicate the directions because "the chew" did such a fantastic job.

the only thing i added was a pound of chicken.  to make this, i sauteed half a shallot and a clove of garlic in a tablespoon of butter for about 2 minutes then added the chicken in strips on medium for about 10-15 minutes.  it was a nice addition!

lots of delicious and pretty ingredients
great entertaining recipe because it you cut everything up beforehand, once your company arrives, it only takes about 10-15 minutes to prepare.
chicken on first, then pasta and veggies

delicious

ohhhh my goodness that looks good! Sitting here at work, waiting to go home to dinner. This is not helping! I really hope my husband has this dish right here already made for me. I'm really hoping ... I'll let you know. :) Found you over on Allie's blog!
