Instructions
- Marinate the chicken breasts in balsamic vinegar and ½ cup olive oil for at least a half an hour. Grill the chicken on a George Foreman grill or on the stove until cooked through.
- Microwave frozen peas to thaw.
- Sautee mushrooms in 2 tbsp olive oil on the stove until cooked through.
- Cook pasta until al dente. As you drain the pasta, reserve the pasta water.
- Put the empty pasta pot back on the stove. Melt butter in the pot and then add the vegemite. Allow the vegemite to start dissolving into the butter.
- As the vegemite is melting, add pasta water into the vegemite, about 2 tbsp at a time. Taste as you go, continuing to add more water until the vegemite flavoring is as strong as you would like it to be.
- The "sauce" should just be a thin coating to give some flavoring to the pasta.
- Add the pasta, the mushrooms, the peas, and the chicken into the pot. You may need to add more vegemite and water to adjust for the amount of food.
- Sprinkle with fresh grated parmesan cheese and enjoy!
