Ingredients

  • 2 whole chicken breast
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 8 oz pasta shells
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 3 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss the 2 cups broccoli and 1 cup cherry tomatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    While vegetables roast, cook the 8 oz pasta shells in salted boiling water until al dente, about 9 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  3. 3

    Season the 2 chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken until golden, about 3 minutes per side.

  4. 4

    Add the 1 cup tomato sauce to the skillet with the chicken. Transfer to the oven and roast until chicken reaches 165°F, about 10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add the roasted vegetables and cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
