"We have three children and a busy life in the country," relates Anne Drouin of Dunnville, Ontario. "So I appreciate not having to dirty extra pots and pans when I make this one-skillet dish of chicken and pasta in a light tomato sauce."

1 medium onion, chopped

1/4 teaspoon pepper
8 ounces uncooked spaghetti, broken into 2-inch pieces
