Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken is browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

  3. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic, diced onion, and sliced red bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.

  4. Add the diced tomatoes with their juices to the skillet. Stir in the dried oregano and basil. Cook for another 2 minutes.

  5. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to cook for 10-12 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has slightly thickened.

  6. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

  7. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing gently to combine and coat the pasta with the sauce.

  8. Serve the Pasta and Chicken Breast hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil leaves.
