Chicken, Broccoli, and Tomato Pasta image

This is an easy, budget-friendly Italian dish that I found in the paper. Since I usually have most of these ingredients on hand, I hope to try it soon. Until then, I'm putting it here for safe keeping.

Categories     Chicken

Time 30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb rigatoni pasta
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup diced onion
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1 cup red wine
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1/2 lb broccoli, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Boil pasta in 6 quarts of water for 8 to 10 minutes. (The pasta will be slightly undercooked). Drain, and set aside. Do NOT rinse.
  • Heat the oil on medium high in a pot large enough to hold the 1 pound of cooked pasta, then add the chicken pieces. Cook for 2 minutes, turning the chicken to brown evenly on all sides.
  • Add the diced onion, and cook for 2 more minutes. Stir in the chopped garlic, basil and oregano and cook for 1 minute. Season with salt and sugar, then pour in the red wine. Bring to a simmer, and reduce the liquid by half.
  • Toss in the diced tomatoes, and return to a simmer. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked. Add the chopped broccoli, and continue cooking for 2 minutes.
  • Mix in the pasta, and cook until the pasta reaches your preferred doness. Finish by mixing in the parmeasan cheese and taste for salt.

I loved this dish! It was so easy to make and the results were delicious. I used whole wheat pasta and it turned out great. I'll definitely be making this again.

This dish was a little too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less red pepper flakes next time. Otherwise, it was a good recipe and I'll definitely be making it again.

I'm not a huge fan of chicken, but I really enjoyed this dish. The tomatoes and broccoli were so flavorful, and the pasta was cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again, but I'll use tofu instead of chicken.

This dish was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra garlic and red pepper flakes and it was much better. I also think it would be good with some grated Parmesan cheese on top.
