Sunday Night Cookout

It's been a few months since my friends and I had a great time collaborating in the kitchen. I just thought of whipping up some spiral pasta with chicken and mango sauce.
Here's the recipe:

500 grams fusilli pasta, cooked al dente
1 cup of cubed chicken breast
1 cup chopped dried mangoes (you can also use
the ripe ones)
1/2 cup julienned red bell peppers
1/2 cup julienned yellow bell peppers
1/2 cup chopped white onions
1 tablespoon chopped ginger
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 cup buttermilk (as a substitute for heavy cream)
grated cheese
salt and pepper to taste
Procedure:
1. Cook the pasta according to package directions.
2. Saute the onions and ginger in 1 tbsp olive oil. Add the chicken breast and cook until the color turns white. Set aside.
3. In a saucepan, saute the the bell peppers, chopped mangoes for about a minute.
4. Add the sauteed chicken breast and onions.
5. Add the buttermilk and simmer until cooked (for about 5 minutes)
6. Place the sauce on top of pasta and then top with grated cheese before serving.

Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 15 minutes
