About this recipe
Chicken pasta with sun-dried tomatoes is a quick, substantial dinner with a tomato base and a short ingredient list. The tomato base gives it a familiar, home-style flavor. The extra protein makes the dish filling and well suited to a more substantial meal.
Ingredients
Servings: 4
300 g chicken breast
220 g penne pasta
4 sun-dried tomatoes
120 ml cream
1 onion
1 tablespoon canola oil
Steps
Cook the pasta in boiling water for 8–10 minutes, until al dente. Before draining, reserve about 100 ml of the cooking water.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 2–3 minutes, until softened.
Cut the chicken into thin strips, add it to the onion, and cook over medium-high heat for 5–6 minutes, stirring. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and cook for 2 minutes more.
Pour in the cream and simmer over low heat for 3–4 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly and the chicken is cooked through but still juicy. Add the drained pasta and toss; if the sauce is too thick, add the reserved water 1 tablespoon at a time.
Divide the pasta, chicken, and sauce into four equal portions and serve immediately.
