The ingredients for Tomatoes Basil pasta are:

Chicken Breast (cooked), no skin, roasted, 2 breast, bone and skin removed
Red Ripe Tomatoes, 2 cup, chopped or sliced
Garlic, 2 tsp
Onions, raw, .5 cup, chopped

Basil, 5 tbsp

Whole Wheat Spaghetti, cooked (pasta), 385 grams
Olive Oil, 2 tbsp

Here is how you make Tomatoes Basil pasta:

Season chicken breasts with kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper. Add a couple of tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to your skillet. This may seem like quite a bit, but it will form the base for the sauce. While waiting for the oil to heat up, go ahead and get your water going for the pasta. When the oil is HOT, add the chicken breasts. You can cut the chicken in peace. After about 4-5 minutes, the chicken breasts should be ready to turn. You'll want to cook them on the second side another 4-5 minutes,or until the juices run clear when you pierce them with a small sharp knife. If you pounded yours out thinner, they will cook faster than this. Mid way, add you onion.After the second side has been cooking for about 4 minutes, go ahead and add in the fresh tomatoes that you have chopped up. Next, add the fresh basil that you have chopped into ribbons, the cold butter, the minced garlic, and you will probably want to add some more kosher salt and black pepper to season the sauce. Now give it all a good stir so all those flavors will marry together. Add the cook pasta.Top with more fresh basil and freshly grated Parmigiana cheese. I like to add balsamic vinegar as well.Serving Size: 6Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user MARLEFEB.
