CHICKEN BASIL PASTA

Steps:

• Heat skillet on medium. Spray with nonstick spray.
• Cook pasta according to directions. (I put the water on to boil while I'm cooking the garlic/onions/chicken, so the pasta is finished about the same time as the rest.).
• Toss in onion and garlic. Stir 1 minute.
• Add chicken. Stir and cook 3-5 minutes, until chicken is mostly cooked through. At this point, I sprinkled with some ground pepper.
• Add can of diced tomatoes and half of basil.
• Simmer 3-5 minutes, until basil is wilted.
• Add sun-dried tomatoes and rest of basil.
• Simmer another 2 minutes or so, to let the sun-dried tomatoes soften.
• Spoon on top of pasta. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese & enjoy!
