Step 1

Marinate chicken in olive oil, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper. Cook on a hot skillet or pan over medium-high heat. Get a golden brown sear on both sides. Then turn the heat to low and cover until the center is cooked through. Chop into small pieces and toss in honey and lime juice. Set aside.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt the water heavily. Drop the asparagus in for 1-2 minutes, just until it turns bright green and softens, then remove. Drop the pasta in and cook to package directions.

Step 3

In a sauce pan over medium heat, add olive oil, bell peppers, onions, and garlic. Sauté until they soften a bit.

Add the heavy cream, chipotle pepper paste, chili powder, paprika, and salt. Mix. Bring to a boil for a minute, then add the parmesan, mix, and simmer for a few minutes until the sauce thickens. Add the asparagus in and mix.

Step 5

Drop the pasta in and toss to evenly coat.
