How to Make Any Night Of The Week Chicken Pasta And Broccoli

  1. Pat chicken breasts dry and season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. In a shallow dish, combine breadcrumbs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, chili powder, and seasoning salt.
  3. Dredge chicken breasts in breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they are fully coated on both sides.
  4. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
  5. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside to rest for 10 minutes. Then, chop into bite-sized pieces.
  6. While chicken rests, cook pasta according to package directions in salted boiling water.
  7. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper.
  8. Once pasta is cooked al dente, drain and add it to the bowl with the olive oil mixture. Toss to coat.
  9. Add remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet. Add chopped onion and sauté for 4 minutes, until softened.
  10. Add white wine and balsamic vinegar to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom.
  11. Add broccoli florets to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  12. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup water, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/8 tsp pepper.
  13. Pour the water mixture into the skillet with the broccoli. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 5 minutes, or until broccoli is tender-crisp.
  14. Add the chopped chicken and cooked pasta to the skillet. Toss everything together to combine.
  15. Stir in the Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately with crusty bread and a green salad.
