1 -2 tablespoon olive oil
¹⁄₂ lb boneless skinless chicken breast
¹⁄₂ cup yellow onion, sliced
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes with onion garlic and basil

Cook pasta in boiling water until al dente.
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Cut chicken into 1 inch cubes and add to skillet along with onions. Cook until chicken is browned on all sides and onions are softened. Add tomatoes and reduce heat to medium-low. Gently mash tomato pieces with a spoon or fork to break them up slightly. Simmer 5-10 minutes while pasta finishes cooking.
Combine chicken mixture with drained pasta and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
