For the Sauce & Pasta:

• 8 oz (225g) pasta (penne, fettuccine, or your choice)
  

 Instructions:

1. Cook the Pasta:

• Boil salted water and cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

• In the same skillet, sauté garlic and sun-dried tomatoes for 1–2 minutes.
  
• Pour in chicken broth and scrape up brown bits from the pan.
  
• Add cream, parmesan, chili flakes, and Italian seasoning. Stir and simmer for 5–6 minutes until thickened slightly.
  

4. Combine:

• Slice or return whole chicken to the pan. Simmer in sauce for 2–3 minutes.
  
• Add cooked pasta and toss until well coated. Adjust seasoning.
  
• Garnish with fresh basil and extra parmesan.
  

5. Serve:
