Tomato-Basil Chicken

So. it's 16, almost 17 days later and still nothing... life of a fashion student I suppose. With school, jobs and internships its kinda crazy over here but finally, I present you with our first post of a real recipe, really made, in our apartment. For real! Okay so unfortunately I (Noelle) am not actually featured in this post, as I wasss? Well - i don't remember what I was doing but you can thank Britt and Andraya for this lovely meal.

Tomato-Basil Chicken
Ingredients:
8 oz uncooked whole wheat fettuccine (we used spaghetti instead)
2 teaspoons olive or vegetable oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped (1/2 cup)
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
3 medium tomatoes, chopped (2 1/2 cups)
2 cups cubed cooked chicken or turkey breast
3 tablespoons chopped fresh or 1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon red pepper sauce (we skipped this, it was still delicious!!)

Steps:
1. Cook and drain fettuccine as directed on package. Cover to keep warm.
2. Meanwhile, in 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook onion and garlic in oil, stirring occasionally, until onion is crisp-tender. Stir in remaining ingredients except fettuccine; reduce heat to medium.
3. Cover; cook about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until mixture is hot and tomatoes are soft. Serve over fettuccine.

This took under 30 minutes, was delicious, and is only 360 calories per serving which is 1 1/2 cups :)

YUM.
Getting their cook on.. and a lil' drink on too!

Don't mess with her in the kitchen!



The wine of choice for the evening :]

Enjoy!
