Ingredients
- 1 pound thin spaghetti pasta
- 1 pound boneless, skinless, chicken breasts
- 2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt & pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, can adjust more or less to taste
- 8 roma tomatoes, chopped
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese, plus more to serve
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil and/or parsley
- salt & pepper to taste
- balsamic glaze, to serve
Instructions
- Cook pasta according to directions on package. Drain. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside.
- While the pasta is cooking, mix together the Italian Seasoning, garlic powder, salt & pepper. Season the chicken breasts (I like to cut them in half lengthwise so they're thinner to cook) on both sides with this mixture. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large skillet and sear chicken over medium-high heat until browned on both sides. Continue cooking chicken about 6 minutes on each side until juices run clear and chicken in thoroughly cooked through. Remove from pan and allow to rest a few minutes.
- Add the olive oil to the same hot skillet and sauté the garlic and red onion about 1 minute. Turn off heat. Add in the chopped tomatoes and toss lightly in skillet. Pour mixture over pasta in bowl. Add the vinegar, parmesan cheese and basil and/or parsley. Season with more salt & pepper to taste. Cut the chicken into slices and add to bowl. Toss the pasta with all of the ingredients until all is well mixed!
- Top with 2 tablespoons extra parmesan and serve immediately with balsamic glaze drizzled over the top. You can also make this dish ahead of time, refrigerate, and serve cold!!!
- Delizioso! Enjoy!!!
