Step-by-Step Instructions for Bruschetta Chicken Pasta
- In a medium bowl, combine halved cherry tomatoes, chopped fresh basil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package directions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve a cup of pasta water, then drain.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add diced chicken, season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 6-8 minutes until browned and cooked through.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the bruschetta mixture. Heat over medium-low for about 1 minute.
- Add the drained spaghetti and cooked chicken back into the skillet. Toss gently to combine, adding reserved pasta water if needed.
- Remove from heat and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired and serve immediately.

Notes
Consider serving with garlic bread or a simple salad for a complete meal. For leftovers, add olive oil or marinara when reheating to restore moisture.
