  3. 1/2 teaspoons - ground cumin
  4. 1 teaspoons - chili powder
  5. 4 - shakes of cayenne pepper sauce

  7. 2 tablespoons - all-purpose flour
  8. 1/2 teaspoons - thyme
  9. 2 cloves - garlic minced
  10. 1 cups - chicken broth

  12. 3 - shakes of Worcestershire sauce
  13. 1 cups - Parmigiano Reggiano cheese grated
  14. 14 ounces - egg fettucine or rotini or ziti cooked al dente

Directions:

Dice chicken breasts and rub with cumin, chili powder, and cayenne pepper sauce.

In a large skillet or frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sausage and cook for 5 minutes to brown.

Sprinkle pan with flour. Cook another minute, then add the thyme and garlic. Shake the pan and add the broth, stirring and picking up all the bits from the bottom of the pan.

Toss drained noodles with sauce and remaining cheese. Top with freshly ground black pepper and extra thyme.
