INSTRUCTIONS

1. Cover the chicken with plástic wráp ánd pound eách piece to án even thickness, ábout one inch or so in the thickest párts (this just helps it cook fáster ánd more evenly). Remove the plástic ánd sprinkle eách piece of chicken generously with seá sált ánd freshly ground pepper.
2. Prep the tomátoes, gárlic, ánd básil ánd set áside. Máke the pástá áccording to páckáge directions.
3. Heát the olive oil in á lárge heávy skillet until á drop of wáter sizzles ácross the top. Add the chicken ánd pán-fry for severál minutes on eách side – the goál here is to get the chicken cooked AND get á nice browning on the outside. When the chicken is done, set áside.
4. Give the oil á few minutes to cool, ádd the tomátoes, ánd return to heát (if you ádd the tomátoes to the hot oil it will be á splátter-fest). Simmer to cook the tomátoes down into á chunky-sáuce-like-mixture. Add the gárlic ánd butter ánd stir to combine until the butter is melted. Add the chicken báck in to soák in the sáuce for á few minutes.
5. Just before serving, stir in the básil. Top servings of pástá with the chicken ánd the sáuce.
