Print Recipe

Chicken Spaghetti with Burrata Cheese, Cherry Tomatoes, Pine Nuts, and Lemon Butter Garlic Sauce is a comfort food dinner that a whole family will love, featuring roasted tomatoes, seasoned chicken, lemon garlic butter sauce, toasted pine nuts, and creamy burrata.[1]

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lb chicken breast (2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts), sliced horizontally
  • 2 pints cherry or grape tomatoes
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ lemon (preferably Meyer lemon), thinly sliced
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 8 oz spaghetti
  • 8 oz burrata cheese
  • ½ cup fresh basil, chopped
  • ⅓ cup pine nuts, lightly toasted

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss cherry tomatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, half the minced garlic, salt, and pepper; roast on a baking sheet for 15-20 minutes until softened. Separately, toast pine nuts at 350°F for 5 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning.[1]
  2. Season chicken breasts with salt, smoked paprika, and Italian seasoning. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook chicken 5 minutes per side until cooked through. Remove, slice thinly, and set aside.[1]
  3. In the same skillet, make lemon butter garlic sauce: add butter, remaining garlic, and lemon slices; cook until fragrant. Add cooked spaghetti, toss to coat, and remove lemon slices. Combine with roasted tomatoes, sliced chicken, chopped basil, and toasted pine nuts.[1]
  4. Top with torn burrata cheese and serve immediately.[1]

Notes

Use Meyer lemons for the best flavor in the sauce; slice chicken thinly for even cooking. Toast pine nuts briefly to prevent burning. For extra creaminess, let burrata melt slightly under a covered lid for 1 minute before serving.[1]
