Bruschetta Chicken Pasta

Print Recipe

A delicious twist on a classic dish that combines juicy chicken, vibrant tomatoes, and fragrant basil with pasta for a wholesome meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked pasta
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 chicken breasts, diced
  • 2 cups fresh tomatoes, diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Parmesan cheese for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat that tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken breasts to the skillet, seasoning them with a pinch of salt and pepper. Allow the chicken to sear without moving it around too much.
  2. Cook the Chicken Through: Stir occasionally to ensure the chicken cooks evenly. It should take about 5-7 minutes to fully cook. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover it loosely with foil to keep it warm.
  3. Sauté the Garlic and Tomatoes: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Toss in the diced tomatoes and cook for about 2 minutes until they start to soften.
  4. Combine the Pasta and Chicken: Add the cooked pasta and the sautéed chicken back into the skillet. Combine everything gently and toss in the freshly chopped basil.
  5. Add the Finishing Touch: Let everything cook together for about 1-2 minutes. Taste and adjust your seasoning if needed.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Divide the pasta into bowls and top with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
