This recipe hails from the beautiful region of Tuscany in Italy. Tuscany is known for its simple yet flavorful dishes that celebrate fresh local ingredients. The combination of tender chicken, aromatic herbs, creamy sauce, and al dente pasta creates a hearty and satisfying meal that embodies the essence of traditional Italian cuisine.

Ingredients
 
 

  • 8 ounces penne pasta
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 cup baby spinach leaves
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Cook the penne pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced chicken and cook until evenly browned, about 5-6 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add the minced garlic, chopped onion, and sliced red bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the cherry tomatoes, baby spinach, dried basil, and dried oregano to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes start to soften.
  • Reduce the heat to low, then pour in the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir well to combine and let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  • Add the cooked penne pasta and sliced chicken back to the skillet. Toss everything together until the pasta and chicken are fully coated in the creamy sauce.
  • Remove from heat and garnish with fresh basil leaves.

Special Tip

To add a touch of freshness and brightness to this Tuscan Chicken Pasta, squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the dish just before serving. The citrusy tang of the lemon will lift the flavors and bring a zesty element to the creamy sauce. Enjoy!
