Steps:

• When chicken is done (moist and tender) take off the grill and let rest.
• Bring a large pot of slightly salted water to a boil for the pasta.
• Add pasta and cook until it is al dente.
• Keep cooked pasta covered and warm in a slight bit of its water.
• In a small, ungreased frying pan, toast pine nuts until they are golden brown.
• Do NOT burn the pine nuts or the entire dish will taste bitter.

• Let this saute for about 1 minute.
• Key: Have all of the ingredients ready and next to the stove because this sauce works fast!
• Add the brie and toasted pine nuts.
• Toss or slowly stir over low heat for two minutes or until the cheese is completely incorporated into the sauce.
• Drain the remaining water off the pasta in a colander.
• Place a nice portion of pasta on a decorative plate.
