Chicken with veggies and tagliatelle pasta

This recipe was improvised using ingredients I had at home. I always try to use lots of veggies because gives a lot of color, taste and adds nutritional value. In this case, I used the peppers - red, green and yellow, carrots, sweetcorn and mushrooms. I added the peppers close to the end of the time of cooking the chicken, so it kept the peppers fresh and crunchy. It's also important to not overcook the vegetables so they keep their vitamins.
