Mom What's for Dinner Pasta image

I made this tonight when my kids and b/f asked what was for dinner, and there was nothing in the house (I badly need to go shopping) but as I work I was waiting for tomorrow (sat). Well I threw this together and everyone loved it.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 ounces olives, sliced
14 1/2 ounces diced tomatoes (I used Italian style)
1/2 ounce of knorr pesto sauce mix or 1/2 ounce premade pesto sauce
10 ounces pasta (I used Gemelli but use what you like)
3 chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Start water for pasta and cook pasta (follow directions on package).
  • Brown chicken in large skillet with a drizzle of olive oil.
  • Add pesto mix, water, oil(leave out water and oil if using premade pesto) stir to combine.
  • Add tomatoes and olives.
  • Cook for 5 minutes.
  • If sauce is done before pasta then turn it off and cover it will stay hot enough.
  • When pasta is done drain and stir together with sauce.
  • Serve with salad and bread.
  • ENJOY !
