How To Make chicken and sun-dried tomatoes over fettuccine

  • Step 1
    Drain tomatoes, reserving oil. Coarsely chop tomatoes; set aside.
  • Step 2
    Saute onion and garlic in some of the reserved oil until translucent. Add mushrooms and cook until soft. Remove from pan and add some more reserved oil.
  • Step 3
    Add chicken and broccoli and saute 8 minutes or until tender. Add basil and reserved tomatoes. Add back onion mushroom mix. Saute an additional 2 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Add salt and pepper and any remaining reserved oil.
  • Step 5
    Cook fettuccine according to package instruction omitting salt. Drain well; place on a large platter. Spoon chicken mixture over fettuccine and toss.
  • Step 6
    If you use all the reserved oil and need more oil, just use some extra-virgin oil. This is a one dish meal and all it needs is a nice salad, a crusty bread and a glass of wine.
