Bruschetta Chicken Pasta

Print Recipe

A fresh and flavorful pasta dish combining al dente angel hair pasta with a savory bruschetta mixture of diced roma tomatoes, shallots, garlic, basil, and balsamic vinegar, served with seasoned and cooked chicken breasts, finished with Parmesan cheese and optional balsamic glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound angel hair pasta
  • 1 pound roma tomatoes, diced
  • 1 small shallot, minced (or ¼ red onion)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1½ pounds chicken breasts
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • Balsamic glaze, for serving (optional)
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving

Instructions

  1. Cook the angel hair pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and return to the pot, tossing with 1 tablespoon olive oil to keep from sticking.
  2. In a bowl, combine diced roma tomatoes, minced shallot, minced garlic, chopped basil, balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside to marinate.
  3. Season chicken breasts with salt, Italian seasoning, onion powder, and black pepper.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken breasts until golden and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side depending on thickness. Remove and let rest briefly, then slice.
  5. Toss the pasta with the tomato mixture, add sliced chicken on top, and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
  6. Drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

For best flavor, use fresh roma tomatoes and fresh basil. If balsamic glaze is unavailable, reduce balsamic vinegar slightly for a more concentrated flavor. Trust pasta cooking times on the package but taste to ensure al dente texture.
