Step 3 Take the chicken and grill it in the oven for 20 minutes, making sure that all of the sides are done equally. Step 4 Take the Penne Pasta from the packet and cook it in a pot following the instructions at the back of the packet. When it is tender, drain it and set it aside. Step 5 Take a frying pan and add the butter. When it turns slightly golden, add in the garlic, onion, and scallion. Let them sauté for a few minutes before adding the chicken breast, cream, salt, and pepper. Don’t forget to keep stirring. Step 6 Gently fold in the cooked pasta, the corn and the peppers.
