Spicy tomato chicken

So I decided to make a spicy tomato chicken and pasta because there is one I love from this restraunt called Brio. It wasn't quite the same as theirs but my husband loved it he went back for thirds plus took it for lunch.

Ingredients:

3 boneless chicken breasts

1 medium red pepper chopped

2 tbsp flour

1 cup of chicken stock or broth

1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice or lime juice

1/2 tsp of chili powder

1 1/2 tsp of garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

1 tsp of dried thyme

1 tsp dried oregano

Pepper to taste

1/2 tsp of basil

4 tbsp of butter

1/2 tsp of crushed red pepper flakes

1 can of diced tomatoes (14.5 ounces)

1/4 cup of parm. cheese

Box of any type of pasta

Prepare pasta according to box

Brown the chicken in a pan with the butter till it turns golden brown

When the chicken is finished remove it from the pan and cut it in half

Add flour to pan and stir until it a roux forms. Then drain half the juice from the can of tomatoes and add the red pepper. Saute until crisp tender.

Stir in the remaining spices. Heat until sauce begins to simmer.

Drain pasta and toss with the sauce and top with chicken.
