Creamy Tomato Chicken Skillet Dinner

  • Serves: 4
  • Time to actively work on it: 45 min

Ingredients

  • 500 gram pasta cooked
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 kilo gram chicken breast
  • 2 tbsp Tomato paste
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 400 gram crushed tomatoes in can
  • 1 cup cream
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
  • 4 cup fresh kale ribs removed, torn into small pieces
  • 1/4 cup fresh ba l leaves thinly sliced, optional
  • salt
  • pepper

Instructions

  1. Brown the chicken breasts in a bit of olive oil, to give them a nice crisp outside. Set them aside.
  2. Keep the skillet warm, and add tomato paste, garlic, fennel seed and red pepper flakes. Then pour in the crushed tomatoes, and get the sauce simmering.
  3. Pour in the heavy cream along with some Parmesan and kale.
  4. When the kale looks wilty, add the seared chicken breasts back to the skillet, and cook until the chicken is done.
  5. Serve with pasta. We like to top the finished chicken skillet with cheese and fresh basil.

Recipe works well with chicken pieces as well instead of chicken breast.
