3 tablespoon of vinegar
Preparation
Sauce: In a bowl mix the tomatoes, chili, green pepper, sugar and vinegar. Set aside. Cajun: In another bowl mix the paprika, garlic, mashed pepper, cumin, coriander and chili powder. Pas the chicken pieces through this sauce. Heat a pan at medium heat and sauté the chicken for 6-7 minutes or until its cooked. Take out of pan and keep hot. Cook the pasta ‘al dente’ in plenty of water with salt. Drain well and place in a large plate. Add the chicken and serve with the tomato sauce.
