Ingredients:

8     ounces        uncooked whole-wheat spaghetti
2     teaspoons     olive oil
1/2   cup           chopped onions
2     medium        garlic cloves
1     medium        green pepper
1     cup           sliced mushrooms
1     pound         raw boneless skinless chicken breasts
2     teaspoons     dried basil
1 1/2 teaspoons     curry powder
1/2   teaspoon      table salt

Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Drain, run under warm water and cover with foil to keep warm.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large saucepan or stock pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, green pepper and mushrooms. Sauté until vegetables are tender and mushrooms release juice, about 4 minutes. Add chicken and sauté until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add basil, curry powder, salt and black pepper; stir to coat.
Add tomatoes and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low, partially cover and simmer 15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in parsley.
Transfer spaghetti to four shallow bowls and spoon chicken mixture over top.
This recipe yields 4 servings; about 1 cup of chicken mixture and 1 cup of spaghetti per serving.
Points® Value: 8
Comments: Simmered in a rich tomato sauce with peppers, mushrooms and whole-wheat pasta, this dish truly satisfies. A touch of curry powder gives it just the right kick.
