Bruschetta Chicken Pasta

With fresh basil and tomatoes!



Ingredients for 4 servings 

  • 1 cup diced fresh tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • ¼ cup torn fresh basil
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ lb. whole-grain angel hair pasta
  • ¾ - 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 2 teaspoons Italian or poultry seasoning - I have a homemade poultry seasoning mix I use. If you are interested in that recipe, just let me know!
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan

Directions

In a large bowl, stir together tomatoes, 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic, basil, and season generously with salt and pepper. Let sit at least 20 minutes.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat remaining tablespoon olive oil. Add chicken and season with Italian seasoning. Cook until no longer pink, about 10 minutes per side. Let rest 5 minutes, then thinly slice (or, shred, if preferred).

Meanwhile, cook angel hair until al dente, about 4 minutes. Drain and return to pot.


Add tomato mixture and sliced chicken to angel hair and toss until combined. Top with Parmesan and a drizzle of olive oil and serve.

Enjoy! Let me know if you have any questions.
