GARLIC BASIL CHICKEN WITH TOMATO BUTTER SAUCE #DINNER #BASIL
Furthermore, may I acquaint you with what might be my new most loved approach to eat chicken? It's that magnificence straight up there, the one covered in the rich nursery new tomato sauce including a couple of leaves of late spring basil and the fragrance of crisply minced garlic. Indeed, THAT is the means by which I eat chicken.
To be completely forthright, I generally feel a little fraudulent posting chicken plans, since you definitely know how I truly feel – a great deal of the time I'm just not terrible, but not great either on this standard white meat which is as far as anyone knows the widely adored thing ever. Yet, I surmise that implies that when I really post chicken plans, you related chicken-meh spirits out there can unite with me in realizing that there are at any rate a couple of good approaches to cause chicken that to do to be sure exist known to mankind. Where my related chicken-meh spirits at?
On the other side of related spirits, this late spring I *think* I may have formally joined the positions of People Who Garden by no related affiliation at all – more by sheer assurance and a great deal of karma.
Also, my passage into the club truly relies upon on the off chance that you can check plants that were obtained from a supermarket or potentially plants that have withered and totally kicked the bucket since being in your consideration. It likewise relies upon if your meaning of Garden has an amount cut off, on the grounds that we're working with about (check em) 1-2-3-4-5 single plants this late spring.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts
- salt and pepper
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 5–6 roma tomatoes, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- one handful fresh basil, loosely packed, cut into ribbons
- 1/4 cup LAND O LAKES® European Style Super Premium Salted Butter
- 8 ounces pasta, like spaghetti, linguine, or bucatini
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Cover the chicken with plastic wrap and pound each piece to an even thickness, about one inch or so in the thickest parts (this just helps it cook faster and more evenly). Remove the plastic and sprinkle each piece of chicken generously with sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Prep the tomatoes, garlic, and basil and set aside. Make the pasta according to package directions.
- Heat the olive oil in a large heavy skillet until a drop of water sizzles across the top. Add the chicken and pan-fry for several minutes on each side – the goal here is to get the chicken cooked AND get a nice browning on the outside. When the chicken is done, set aside.
- Give the oil a few minutes to cool, add the tomatoes, and return to heat (if you add the tomatoes to the hot oil it will be a splatter-fest). Simmer to cook the tomatoes down into a chunky-sauce-like-mixture. Add the garlic and butter and stir to combine until the butter is melted. Add the chicken back in to soak in the sauce for a few minutes.
- Just before serving, stir in the basil. Top servings of pasta with the chicken and the sauce.
NOTES:
- You can see the picture to see how much basil I used. I pulled all those leaves off, ribbon-ed them, and added them in! It was probably about one cup, loosely packed, but go by taste. If you’re not huge on basil, start with less.
