# Easy Tomato Spaghetti Recipe with Shredded Chicken

Any kind of pasta is always a welcome dinner for me, simple because it is hassle-free and doesn't demand a side dish or gravy. Isn't that a perfect meal for one? (Oh!! How I hate cooking just for myself!) I prefer the tomato based paste to the cheese base, though I crave for the latter occasionally. This is an as-simple-as-it-gets kind of recipe to make some yummy spaghetti. Vegetarians, just avoid the chicken and add mushrooms instead, if you like them, or just go plain!

**Tomato Spaghetti with Chicken**

Ingredients:

Spaghetti - one packet

Shredded cooked chicken - 1/2 cup

Pureed tomatoes - 4

Capsicum/bell pepper - half

Spinach (optional) - 3 to 4 stalks

Crushed garlic - 6 pods

Oregano - 2 tsp

Pepper - 3 tsp

Salt - to taste

Olive oil - 1 tbsp

How I Made It:

1. Cook the spaghetti in boiling water till done. Add some salt and a little oil the water to enhance flavour and prevent it from sticking together once done.

2. Heat the oil and fry the garlic for 30 seconds. Add the diced spinach and capsicum, pureed tomatoes and the chicken and fry for another minute.

3. Add the spaghetti and mix well. Season with the oregano and pepper while still on the stove and mix well. Adjust salt and remove from fire.

Serve hot.
