Ingredients
- 3/4 lb. angel hair pasta
- 1 1/2 lbs. chicken tenders
- 1 cup bread crumbs
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 teaspoons garlic salt
- pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup butter melted
for the bruschetta topping-
- 5 medium 'on the vine' tomatoes diced
- 1 small clove garlic grated
- 20 basil leaves chopped
- salt & pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon each olive oil and balsamic vinegar optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray 9x13 glass dish with non stick cooking spray and set aside.
- Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Cook angel hair pasta until al dente. Drain, coat with 1-2 tablespoons butter {if desired} and set aside.
- While pasta is cooking, rinse chicken and blot with paper towels to dry. In shallow dish, stir bread crumbs, cheese, garlic salt and pepper together. Place melted butter into a large bowl. Dip chicken pieces into the butter, then press into the bread crumb mixture. Place into greased pan. Repeat until all chicken is coated. Bake 15-20 minutes in preheated oven or until thoroughly cooked and golden brown.
- While chicken is cooking, stir tomatoes together with garlic, basil, salt, pepper, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. {I didn't add the oil or vinegar because I ran out of both...oops. Do as I say not as I do.}
- To assemble, place buttered pasta onto a plate. Top with chicken, then tomato topping. Serve.
