A delicious and easy to make chicken in tomato sauce with pasta. It's also very healthy, using only cooking oil spray and a sprinkle of low-fat cheese to finish.
In today's recipe, the star of the show is this tasty chicken in tomato sauce with pasta.
I originally made this it using leftover roasted chicken, which you still can. But it's also as easy frying chicken breast with the vegetables too.
It would also be great in a slow cooker too, once you've sauteed and seared your meat!
How to Make Chicken in Tomato Sauce With Pasta
Above, I've put together some step by step shots so you can see how easy it is to make my chicken in tomato sauce with pasta.
It's just a matter of sauteing garlic, onions and leeks in cooking oil spray or Frylight. Note, however, these days, I much prefer a pure oil in a spray bottle. I can get just as much control and the vegetables soften without ruining my pans.
Then add the chicken and everything else except the cheese and simmer away. Meanwhile, cook your pasta in a separate pan. Also, if you don't have passata at hand, then why not try a tin of chopped tomatoes instead?
