Ingredients

1/2 cup oil packed sun dried tomatoes, oil drained
1 lb boneless chicken breasts or thighs, cubed
salt and black pepper
4 tsp italian seasoning
2 tbsp salted butter
2 cloves garlic, chopped
3/4-1 lb short cut pasta
2 cups whole milk
2 oz cream cheese
2 cups chopped baby spinach
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup fresh chopped basil

Method

In a large pot set over medium-high heat, cook the oil from the sun-dried tomato jar with the chicken and 2 teaspoons of Italian seasoning. Cook for 5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Scoop the chicken out of the pot and set aside.
Add the butter, garlic, and 2 teaspoons of Italian seasoning. Cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the pasta and 2 cups of water. Cook, stirring often, until the pasta is al dente, about 8 minutes. Stir in the milk, cream cheese, and parmesan. Mix until creamy.
Slide the chicken into the pasta, add the spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and parmesan, and gently mix. Remove from the heat and stir in the basil.
Serve the pasta immediately with fresh parmesan and basil. Enjoy!
