Ingredients:
6 tablespoons seasoned dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons finely chopped pine nuts
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, flattened between 2 pieces of plastic wrap until 1/2-inch thick

Add chicken and turn to coat both sides.

3. Reduce heat to medium, cover and cook 1-2 more minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
4. Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of rapidly boiling water until tender, about 2-3 minutes. Drain and toss with diced tomatoes. Serve chicken with pasta on the side.
