INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
0.5 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 cup Canned Diced Tomatoes
0.25 medium Yellow Onion
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions, usually about 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Place the chicken breast (previously seasoned lightly with salt and pepper) into the skillet. Sear each side for about 2 minutes, then reduce the heat to low and add the canned diced tomatoes.
Allow the chicken to simmer in the tomato sauce for about 8-10 minutes until thoroughly cooked and the flavors meld together.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it into strips or bite-sized pieces. Stir the pasta into the tomato sauce, then fold in the chicken pieces.
Add fresh basil, adjust seasonings with a pinch of salt and black pepper, and gently toss the mixture to combine evenly.
Serve warm and enjoy your hearty, protein-packed meal.
