Ingredients:
8 oz. thin spaghetti pasta
1/2 lb. boneless chicken breast, cubed
2 cloves garlic, minced
Chopped parsley, for garnish
SAUCE:
1/2 c. light mayonnaise
1/4 c. plus 2 Tbsp. Thai sweet chili sauce
1/2 Tbsp. honey
1 Tbsp. Sriracha sauce
1 Tbsp. lime juice

Directions:
Lightly grease a saute pan and turn stove to medium high heat.  Add garlic and cook until aroma of the garlic comes out.  Add in the chicken pieces and cook until the chicken is cooked through and slightly browned.

In a large pot, add water and bring to a boil.  Add pasta and cook until done.  Drain out water when the pasta is done cooking.  

While the pasta is cooking, prepare the sauce.  In a small bowl, combine the sauce ingredients and whisk together until smooth.  Adjust the spice level as needed for your taste.

Add chicken to pasta.  Pour 2/3 of the sauce into the hot pasta and toss.  Slightly warm the remaining sauce (in int he microwave is fine).  Dish out pasta onto plates and add remaining sauce on top.  Garnish with parsley if desired.
