Ingredients
  

300g spaghetti

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup chicken broth

1 cup diced tomatoes (canned or fresh)

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for heat)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Grated Parmesan cheese for serving

Instructions
 

Cook the Spaghetti: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water.

    Sauté the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced chicken breasts and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

      Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

        Combine Ingredients: Pour in the chicken broth and diced tomatoes, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for about 5 minutes.

          Add Cream and Seasoning: Lower the heat and add the heavy cream, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir everything together and let it simmer for another 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

            Combine with Chicken and Pasta: Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet, followed by the drained spaghetti. Toss everything together, adding reserved pasta water as needed to achieve the desired creamy consistency. Season with more salt and pepper, if necessary.

              Serve: Plate the creamy chicken spaghetti in bowls, garnishing with fresh basil leaves and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
