Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. 1. Heat oil in 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of the Italian seasoning. Cook and stir 3 to 5 minutes or until browned.
  2. 2. Add broth and water. Heat to boiling. Add pasta and bell pepper. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cook uncovered 10 to 12 minutes, stir; ring occasionally, until pasta is tender.
  3. 3. Stir in remaining 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning, kidney beans and the zucchini. Cook 3 to 5 minutes or until zucchini is crisp-tender. 4 servings.
