Directions

  1. In a large saucepan over low heat, melt butter, add garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes and 3/4 cup of the chicken broth, increase to medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 10 minutes or until the tomatoes are tender. Add the cream and bring to a boil, stirring. Simmer over medium heat until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.

  2. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. In a large skillet over medium heat, warm oil and saute chicken. Press on chicken occasionally with a slotted spatula. Cook for about 4 minutes per side or until the meat feels springy and is no longer pink inside. Transfer to a board, cover and keep warm. Discard the fat from the skillet.

  3. In the same skillet, over medium heat, bring 1/4 cup chicken broth to a boil, stirring the pan juices. Reduce slightly and add to the cream sauce, stir in basil and adjust seasonings to taste.

  4. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add fettuccine and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente, drain, transfer to a bowl and toss with 3 to 4 tablespoons of the sauce.

  5. Cut each chicken breast into 2 to 3 diagonal slices. Reheat the sauce gently if needed. Transfer the pasta to serving plates, top with chicken and coat with the cream sauce, serve.
