• 1 3/4 cups chicken broth

Mike Kucera and I met at a men's study group about 10 years ago as we learned what the Bible had to say about managing marriage, family, and finances.

• 1/2 cup fresh chives, chopped and divided • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped and divided

2. TELL US ABOUT MARCUS & MILLICHAP AND WHAT YOU DO FOR THEM?

• 1/2 cup carrots, grated

• 2 tsp minced garlic

I'm fortunate to start my 22nd year with the industry leader of real estate investment brokerage (NYSE: MMI) where I specialize in the sale of retail investments (typically in the $1–10 million range) to mostly private investors. It is a national business, so I work with both investors and properties spread across the U.S. 3. HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE MARKET AFTER GOING THROUGH THIS TOUGH TIME, AND WHAT KEEPS YOU GOING? In 2021, we remain in one of the lowest interest rate environments in history, so the cost of borrowing has pushed up real estate values due to the low cost of funds. Certain real estate types have fared much better than others during the pandemic, including medical, industrial, and certain retail investments like dollar stores, fast-food restaurants with drive-thru windows, auto parts, and other product types that are considered essential businesses.

• 1/4 tsp salt

DIRECTIONS • 1 1/2 cups uncooked penne pasta

• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, divided

1. Preheat oven to 425 F and grease an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.

2. In the prepared dish, stir together cooked chicken, artichokes, asparagus, carrots, uncooked pasta, chicken broth, half the chives, half the parsley, garlic, salt, and 2 tbsp Parmesan.

3. Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 35 minutes.

4. Uncover and stir. At this point, check the pasta to make sure it is al dente. If it’s undercooked, cover the dish and return to the oven until pasta is tender.

5. Remove from oven and garnish with remaining Parmesan, chives, and parsley.
