Preparation

8. Add finely chopped garlic and thyme leaves.
Bake for one minute to smell the garlic.
10. Add a liter of chicken broth base or a liter of water and two cubes of chicken broth.
11. Wait for the water to boil, then return the chicken pieces to the pan and add the sliced peppers.
12. Let the base cook for 8 minutes, then add the pasta.
13. Cover the pan and simmer the pasta for 12-17 minutes, stirring regularly.
14. Cook them open for the last minutes.
