Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, separated
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 12 ounces pasta (I used bowties, but any short pasta works nicely)
• 1 can (15 ounces) Hunt’s Diced Tomatoes with Basil, Garlic + Oregano (or a
• comparable brand of Italian-seasoned diced tomatoes)
• 1 can (15 ounces) crushed tomatoes
• 3 cups shredded cooked chicken (omit to make a vegetarian dish)
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or 1/4 teaspoon if you want a less-spicy dish)
• 2 teaspoons dried italian seasoning
• 1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
• 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth (substitute vegetable broth to make vegetarian)
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• Parmesan cheese, for serving

Directions:

1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large stock pot over medium heat. Once hot, add the chopped onions + cook until onions are translucent + softened, about 7 minutes. Add the garlic + cook for 1 minute more, until fragrant.
2. Add the remaining ingredients to the stock pot – the pasta, diced tomatoes with their liquid, crushed tomatoes, shredded chicken, red pepper flakes, italian seasoning, fresh basil, chicken broth, remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt + pepper. Stir everything together until well combined.
3. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce to a simmer + cook for 10-15 minutes (depending on the type of pasta you choose), stirring frequently. Cook until almost all the liquid has evaporated + pasta has reached an al dente consistency. Add more salt + pepper if needed + stir well. Serve with a generous topping of freshly grated Parmesan cheese + enjoy!
