Life is just so busy quick and easy skillet meals have become my new BFF. I have started becoming a major slacker lately as school is coming to an end. I honestly hate eating out and feeding my family fast food. So meals like this are just so easy to create and they are incredibly delicious!

This meal has so many delicious ingredients that your family is going to love! It has a creamy cheesy mozzarella sun dried tomato sauce and it is tossed with chicken and pasta. The fresh basil throughout also adds such delicious flavor!

You are going to love this meal just as much as our family did!

  1. This dish I made for the 1st time almost 2 years ago & it was amazing & we’ve made it many many times since. If you love pasta you’ll absolutely LOVE this. I am obsessed with the sun dried tomatoes they really make the dish for sure. You’ve got to make it at least once and i can almost promise it will become a regular.

  2. I followed the recipe to a T and the sauce was very watery. Never thickened up. Was more of a soup pasta 🙁
