Chicken Marinara

Hello everyone! My name is Whitney Bonnema and I made this dish because I am big pasta lover.
My mom and I decided to go shopping and find the cheapest ingredients to substitute as a healthier version of the pasta we love, Chicken Marinara. This meal is quick and delicious.

Ingredients: 
- Angel Hair Pasta
- 1 Fresh Garden diced tomato 
- Precooked 1/2 Chopped grilled chicken breast
- Italian Seasoning

I love this dish because anything can be substituted and the amounts do not have to be exact. Because chicken can be expensive, it does not need to be added and it will still turn out delicious!

This meal took me a total of 15 minutes to make. 
This process is quite simple!

Directions:
1. Boil angel hair pasta until desired softness
2. Rinse noodles, Strain water, Place to cool
3. While noodles cool- chop tomatoes and heat chicken
4. Chop chicken into desired slice size
5. Place noodles on plate followed by chicken and tomatoes
6. Sprinkle desired amount of Italian seasoning (or my personal favorite, Balsamic Vinegar)
