Angel Hair Pasta With Basil-Tomato Sauce (And Chicken) image

Delicious and relatively healthy & light pasta dish. This is modified from "The Low Fat Good Food Cookbook," which in turn modified from a restaurant, Villa Romano, in Nashville, TN. I have added grilled chicken to it - to make it into a main course, but you can try it without or with some other sort of meat...
