This dish might look a little fancy, but it comes together in four fast steps. While the pasta cooks, the rich garlic and juicy cherry tomatoes work their magic in the pan with the plump chicken, plus a couple of our staple seasonings. Don't forget to add the butter at the end - it balances out the acidity in the tomatoes beautifully.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.
