Chicken Broccoli Pasta

This recipe I made up from stealing ideas from different other recipes to create this. It turned out pretty good, if I do say so myself. It's very simple, quick to do and has lots of flavor to it. And it's really nice and light.


2 boneless, skinless chicken breast
12 oz penne pasta (you really could use any kind you like)
1/2 lb broccoli
kosher salt
garlic salt
garlic powder
olive oil
1/2 pint grape tomatoes
1 can black olives
3 T Parmesan cheese

Heat oven to 425. In tin foil place chicken breast seasoned with kosher salt and garlic powder. Lightly drizzle with olive oil. Wrap chicken in tin foil then bake in oven for 25 minutes. Meanwhile, cook pasta and steam broccoli. Drain pasta and mix with broccoli. When chicken is done cut into cubes and combine with pasta. Add olives and tomatoes. Drizzle about 1-2 T olive oil over pasta mixture. Season with garlic salt, to taste and add Parmesan cheese. Serve. Serves about 4.
