Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 pound chicken breast tenderloins
¼ cup garlic herb butter
½ (16 ounce) package mostaccioli pasta
2 tablespoons capers
2 teaspoons chicken base
½ cup dry white wine
¼ cup heavy cream
1 medium lemon, juiced

Steps:

Place flour and seasoned salt into a zip-top bag; seal and shake to mix. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and add to flour mixture. Seal tightly and shake to coat.
Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic herb butter and swirl to coat. Add chicken; reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is slightly browned, about 2 minutes.
At the same time, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
Meanwhile, stir capers and chicken base into chicken. Cook, stirring often, until flavors have blended, about 2 minutes. Add wine, cream, and lemon juice. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly heated and chicken is no longer pink in the centers, 3 to 4 minutes.
Drain pasta and stir into chicken mixture.
