How to Make Fusilli Chicken With Oven Roasted Tomatoes And Broccoli

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place 1 pint plum tomatoes in a baking dish. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. Roast for 30-40 minutes, until tomatoes are softened and slightly browned.
  4. While tomatoes roast, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 pound broccoli florets and cook until tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
  5. Drain broccoli and set aside.
  6. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 1 teaspoon fresh thyme. Cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
  7. Add 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently.
  8. Add 2 cloves garlic, minced, and cook for 1 minute more.
  9. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons lemon juice.
  10. Cook 1 pound fusilli pasta according to package directions. Drain and add to the skillet with the chicken mixture.
  11. Add the roasted tomatoes and cooked broccoli to the pasta. Toss gently to combine.
  12. Serve immediately. Garnish with extra fresh thyme, if desired.
