Chicken Pasta with Tomato Sauce

For this recipe, you can use any pasta you'd like, but I recommend bucatini. It's a long, wide spaghetti shape that is hollow through the middle. It's great for trapping sauce!

Ingredients
1/2 pkg. bucatini pasta
1 chicken breast
1/4 C. fresh basil, chopped
1 C. grated Parmesan
2 C. frozen broccoli, defrosted

Sauce:
1 large can chopped or crushed tomatoes
1/4 C. red wine
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. dried oregano

Directions

Cook bucatini according to package directions, drain and set aside.

To make the sauce, add tomatoes and their juice, red wine, salt, pepper and oregano into a large saucepan. Heat on medium-high until bubbly and slightly reduced. The sauce should thicken a bit - about 15 minutes.

In the meantime, salt and pepper the chicken breast and cook in a small fry pan in about 1 Tbs. olive oil until done - about 5 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness.

When chicken is done, dice into small pieces. When all components are ready, combine in a large pot. Add half of the Parmesan and stir to combine. Add the rest of the Parmesan to finish and garnish with some small basil leaves

1/2 tsp. dried basil, thyme or oregano (or mixed)
1/8 tsp. pepper
1/4 C. uncooked small pasta shells or noodles
1 C. leftover shredded or cubed roast beef

Directions
In a large pan bring everything but the pasta or noodles to a boil. Add pasta and simmer 10 minutes or until tender. Add meat and heat through. This is good with garlic bread.
