Chicken with Feta, Roasted Tomatoes, and Garlic Butter Spinach Spaghetti

Chicken with Feta, Roasted Tomatoes, and Garlic Butter Spinach Spaghetti

Ingredients

For the chicken:

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded to uniform thickness

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided

Salt and pepper to taste

4 roma tomatoes, sliced

Crumbled feta cheese

For the spaghetti:

1/3 pound spaghetti noodles, broken into thirds

3 tablespoons butter

6 cloves garlic, minced

Salt and pepper to taste

2 cups baby spinach leaves, thinly sliced

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Arrange tomato slices on a baking sheet. Sprinkle them with salt and pepper and add one tablespoon of olive oil; toss to evenly combine. Roast tomatoes in an even layer for about 10 minutes, or until softened and beginning to brown. Set aside, covered, until serving.

2. Heat the remaining two tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper and add to skillet. Cook until chicken is well browned on both sides and juices run clear; remove from heat, place on a plate, and cover with foil until serving.

3. To make the spaghetti, cook the noodles in boiling salted water to al dente; drain. Meanwhile, heat the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. When melted, add garlic and salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is fragrant. Add spinach to drained noodles and pour the garlic butter mixture over the top. Toss to combine and wilt the spinach.

4. Spoon some of the pasta onto each plate. Top the pasta with a piece of chicken, some of the roasted tomatoes, and sprinkling of feta cheese.
