Ingredients

Chicken Breasts:

Four 4 oz. chicken breasts (grill right before serving)

******************************************************

Season both sides of chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Grill 3-4 minutes per side

for grill marks or until the chicken breasts reach 165ºF.

********************************************************

Garlic Bread:

1 stick of butter (1/4 pound)

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Melt butter in microwave and stir to combine seasonings.

Drizzle your favorite bread with garlic butter and bake at 350º until crispy and golden brown (approximately 4 minutes).

**********************************************************

Pasta:

1 lb. angel hair pasta (can cook and chill ahead of time)

2 tablespoons salt

***********************************************************

Boil pasta in ½ gallon of water with salt until al dente. Drain and transfer to a bowl. If cooking

ahead of time, shock in an ice bath to cool, remove from water and toss with 2 Tbsp. of salad oil.

**************************************************************

Fresh Tomato Sauce:

6-8 medium-size Roma tomatoes

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

2 cloves of minced garlic

10 fresh basil leaves

1/2 cup plain tomato sauce

******************************************************

Balsamic Glaze:

1 cup balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon sugar

Directions

Bring to a boil in small sauce pan and turn down flame to a simmer. Reduce by 75% until sauce turns to a thick syrup and hold at room temperature.

Wash, core and dice tomatoes to 1/4" pieces, save juices and place in a small bowl.

Wash, dry and cut basil leaves into thin strips.

Add to tomatoes along with salt and pepper and hold for 2 hours before using.

Heat a heavy bottom sauce pan under medium-low flame.

Add 2 Tbsp. olive oil and heat oil for 20 seconds.

Add any remaining garlic butter from bread to sauce pan.

Sauté 2 cloves of garlic sliced into thin coins in oil for 45 seconds on each side until soft and tender - do not brown garlic.

Increase heat, add tomato mixture and stir.

Add 1/2 cup of plain tomato sauce to pan and bring to a light boil. Add pasta to sauce pan and toss with fresh sauce (sauce should just coat pasta).

Transfer to a service platter or plate individually and garnish with

balsamic glaze.

Slice chicken breast into strips on a bias (45 degree angle) and place on top of pasta.

Garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
