Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta.
- In the mean time, core, seed and slice the bell peppers into thin strips and cut into 1-inch pieces. Cut the asparagus into 1-inch pieces.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil until hot and sauté the peppers, onions and asparagus over medium-high heat until softened but still crisp, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer cooked vegetables to a large mixing bowl and add the chicken and sun-dried tomatoes. Toss with 1/2 cup of the pesto and 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

- While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a deep 12-inch skillet over MEDIUM-HIGH heat. Add the chicken and garlic and sauté for several minutes, until the chicken is just lightly golden brown. Season with salt, pepper and crushed red pepper. Add the roasted red peppers and cook, stirring, for another minute or two or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked. Reduce the heat to MEDIUM and add the half and half and pesto and stir well to combine it with the chicken and any accumulated juices in the skillet to create a sauce.
- Drain the cooked pasta well and add it to the skillet with the chicken and stir to combine the mixture. Drop small dollops of the ricotta over the pasta and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the top. Cover the skillet and simmer over LOW heat for about 10 minutes, or until the ricotta is softened and beginning to melt into the pasta.
