Tomato Basil Chicken Skillet

It seems like life these days get busier and busier. For most families, including mine, even a 30 minute meal can be challenge on many evenings. I find that it gets even harder to get a delicious dinner on the table and we end up ordering take out or going out to eat. This leads to spending a lot more money and, frequently, wasted food since I’ve actually bought food to make but just didn’t have time to make it. But, I find when I take some time one day a week to do a little meal prep that all changes. 

Tomato Basil Chicken Skillet

One of the keys to making meal prep actually work is to make sure you have the right tools and recipes. This tomato basil skillet recipe is perfect for transforming the leftovers into a yummy chicken Alfredo flatbread pizza. I just store my leftovers in my new Rubbermaid® Brilliance™ containers that I got from Walmart until I am ready to reinvent them into a new dinner. They also work great for storing the ingredients that I prep for any recipes throughout the week like chopped veggies or prepared sauces. They are 100% leak proof guaranteed and stackable so they can make storage in the refrigerator easy and convenient.

Both the tomato basil chicken skillet and chicken Alfredo flatbread pizza come together super fast thanks to Bertolli®’s new Creamy Basil Alfredo sauce. With Tuscan roots, Bertolli® insists on their sauces being made with the highest quality ingredients. The creamy basil Alfredo sauce so creamy and full of fresh basil flavor.

Tomato Basil Chicken Skillet Ingredients:

6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt and pepper
1 Tbsp oil
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup grape tomatoes
1 jar Bertolli® Creamy Basil Alfredo sauce
1/4 cup half and half
1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes, julienned
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp chopped basil

Let’s Make It:

1. Season chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove from skillet. 

2. Add mushrooms and grape tomatoes to skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Stir in Alfredo sauce and half and half. Add chicken and sun dried tomatoes. Simmer for 5-10 minutes. Top with grated Parmesan and basil just before serving.

This recipe is so easy and delicious. I can quickly toss a salad together while the chicken simmers for a meal that is ready in under 20 minutes. I always transfer two of my chicken breasts and some sauce to my Rubbermaid® Brilliance™ containers and place in the refrigerator to be used for chicken alfredo flatbread pizzas on another night.

    My kids are picky about tomato sauce but they love alfredo sauce. This might be a great alternative to your average pizza that they will love. Thanks for sharing it.
