Tomato Spinach Chicken Spaghetti

One bite of this Tomato Spinach Chicken Spaghetti and you will never buy jarred tomato sauce ever again. Spaghetti is tossed in a fresh and flavorful sauce with pieces of juicy chicken.

Ingredients

• 1/2 pound spaghetti
• 1/4 cup julienned sun-dried tomatoes
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch cubes
• 4 roma tomatoes seeded and chopped
• 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves julienned
