To make this easy pasta recipe, simply combine cooked spaghetti noodles with chopped cooked chicken, fresh tomato, basil, and goat cheese and toss with olive oil. Serve with garlic bread for a simple dinner.
I rarely deviate from a recipe the first time I make it, but I did add a large minced clove of garlic when I cooked the onions as other reviewers suggested and I think it did help, as even with that addition, the basic flavor of this dish is relatively bland - it's the goat cheese and basil that really make it tasty. I occasionally prefer pasta with something other than heavy sauces, so I'll add this recipe to my collection. I also think the amount of pasta could be cut down - maybe half - as it was huge servings.
This was really tasty, except I added 1 tbls. minced garlic and shredded Parmesan!
Added some sun dried tomatoes, oil-marinated in herbs. Also added some fresh garlic, and added more fresh basil. I only had feta, but making again tonight with goat cheese. Great way to use up leftover chicken! fast, easy and delish.
This dish was delicious! I used whole wheat pasta and feta cheese instead if goat and loaded up on the fresh basil. My husband asked that I put this recipe into our meal rotation!
