Vermicelli Herbed Chicken
For me, this is a great dish on a rainy night. I pre-cook the chicken and then make it in a frying pan in just 25 mins! Basil adds flavour and mirchis add spice!

Serves: 4
- 250g vermicelli noodles
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, chopped

- 4 boneless chicken breasts - cooked and cubed
- 1 small bunch fresh basil, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 dried crushed red chillies (optional)
- 4 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan

Awesome flavor, quick and simple to make. I did use 2 cans of basil, garlic and oregano diced tomatoes with their juices instead of fresh tomatoes other than that I followed the recipe. The only reason I gave this a 4 stars is because the sauce was watery, maybe I will use less of the juices and let it reduce before serving. I will definately be making this again.(Update: I did make this again and still used 2 cans of basil, garlic and oregano diced tomatoes but drained the juices from one can and then while cooking I let the sauce reduce until it was thick enough and not watery.) - 20 Jul 2007 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
I love this recipe. I used fresh garden tomatoes, tripled the garlic, added dried oregano, and omitted salt. Because the tomato mixture doesn't really make a sauce, I added 1 cup of white wine and just under a cup of chicken broth. Let everything simmer and it was simply delicious and light. The grated parmesan cheese is an essential finishing touch. I will definitely include this dish in my regular rotation. Thanks! - 21 Jul 2007 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
This was very tasty. I didn't have fresh tomatoes on hand so I added a 14 oz. can of diced tomatoes. I'm sure this is even better with fresh tomatoes. If using canned tomatoes, I think 1 tsp. sugar would help cut the tang of the tomatoes. My husband enjoyed this so I'll make this again! - 13 Oct 2001 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
