Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 oz fettuccine pasta

  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 cup spinach

  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions; drain and set aside.

  8. Slice the cooked chicken and add it back to the skillet along with the cooked pasta. Toss to combine.
