Fresh Tomato Basil Linguine image

This is my new favorite pasta recipe. I've made it about 10 times the last few months because it's so easy and so good. It's adapted from a grocery store recipe. It's great even without the chicken. You can add onion to this also by sauteing some in the olive oil before adding the tomatoes. Please use all fresh ingredients for the best results.

1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • I have everything going at once for a quick dinner but if you can't do that toss a little olive oil with the cooked pasta to keep it from sticking.

  • Cook the chicken by desired manner and cut into strips. Optional: toss with desired spices.
  • Sauce:.

This dish is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. The sauce is full of flavor and the linguine is a fun shape that kids love. I often add a little bit of grated Parmesan cheese to the top before serving.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more garlic and herbs. The sauce was also a bit thin. I would recommend adding a little bit of cornstarch or flour to thicken it up.

This recipe is a great base for a quick and easy weeknight meal. I often add other vegetables to the sauce, such as zucchini, mushrooms, or spinach. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken or shrimp.
