chicken feta pasta

Chicken with a feta tomato sauce is TRUE perfection!

Chicken Feta Pasta

olive oil

chicken breasts

salt and black pepper

garlic (chopped)

tomatoes

pasta water

long pasta (bucatini is my favorite)

feta cheese (divided)

basil (finely chopped, optional)

In a large pot or Dutch oven with a lid, heat the olive oil over high for 1 minute, then add the chicken. Season liberally with salt and black pepper. Cook the chicken, moving it around in the pan a little to prevent sticking, so that a nice crust will form, about 10 minutes. Flip, sprinkle with the garlic and stir to combine for 30 seconds until fragrant. After 30 seconds, add the diced tomatoes and 6 ounces of the crumbled feta and simmer.

Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Once al dente, add ½ cup of the pasta water into the chicken mixture and continue to let it simmer. Drain the pasta and then add to the chicken tomato mixture.

Serve warm, sprinkled with the remaining feta cheese and fresh basil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

So the other day I made Marry Me Baked Feta Pasta, Not only did it go viral, but I&#039;ve had a lot of baked feta pastas and this one is 100% the best. The marinade I use took it over the top and I added shrimp at the end of the bake time and it came out world class delicious. In the words from my video I may not have invented it but I perfected it. So, My boyfriend tried it and said it was a 15/10 and then he asked me to make it again but this time put chicken in it. So I thought to myself i&#039;m going to use the same flavor profile but I want to add the chicken in a way to where it all bakes bubbly at the same time. So now I made it again with a few adjustments and now with chicken breasts. I&#039;d like to mention I made this ten minutes ago and between me, my son, and my assistant it is all gone within 15 minutes. I used penne for this and it&#039;s a solid 15/10 perfection.
