Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Roma tomatoes about 6, seeded and diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced for flavor
  • ½ cup fresh basil torn, plus extra leaves for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar adds acidity and depth
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • ½ lb angel hair pasta half of a 16 oz box
  • 1 –1½ lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 2, trimmed)
  • Balsamic glaze optional, for drizzling

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, combine diced tomatoes, garlic, basil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper.
  2. Let the bruschetta mixture sit at room temperature while preparing chicken and pasta.
  3. Cook angel hair pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and return to pan. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and toss to prevent sticking.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  5. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, add to skillet, and cook 4–8 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until no longer pink and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  6. Transfer chicken to a plate, cover with foil, and let rest while you heat the bruschetta.
  7. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet and cook the bruschetta mixture, stirring, just until heated through (1–2 minutes).
  8. Turn off heat and add the drained pasta to the skillet. Toss to coat, adding more olive oil if needed.
  9. Slice chicken breasts and add to pasta.
  10. Divide into bowls and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh basil and drizzle with balsamic glaze. Optionally, sprinkle with shredded Parmesan or mozzarella.
