- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper,* to taste

Directions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt* generously and cook pasta according to package directions.
Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, heat vegetable oil* over medium-high heat. Add chicken or shrimp and season with salt and pepper*, to taste. Sauté and turn occasionally to brown on all sides until just cooked through, 4-6 minutes for chicken (or until internal temperature is 165°F) and 1-2 minutes for shrimp (until flesh is opaque).
While chicken or shrimp is cooking, microwave the veggie steamer bag according to package directions. Caution: Steamer bag will be hot and may release steam when opened.
Once chicken or shrimp is cooked, turn heat down to medium-low and add sauce, stirring to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer, add cooked pasta and stir until pasta is well-coated and sauce is warmed through, 1-2 minutes.
