Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

8 oz fettuccine pasta

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for heat)

1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add fettuccine and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Prepare the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using), then add them to the skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F). Remove from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into bite-sized pieces.

      Make the Bruschetta Mixture: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the minced garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant, then add the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften. Stir in the balsamic vinegar and chopped basil, cooking for an additional minute.

        Combine Everything: Add the cooked fettuccine and sliced chicken into the skillet with the bruschetta mixture. Toss everything together until the pasta is well coated with the sauce and heated through.

          Serve: Transfer the pasta to a serving platter or bowls, and sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese. Garnish with additional fresh basil leaves.
