- 1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 12 ounces spaghetti
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté for 5 minutes until translucent.

Pour in the crushed tomatoes and coconut milk, and stir to combine.
Add the dried oregano and dried basil to the skillet, stirring well.
Bring the sauce to a simmer and let it cook for 10 minutes to let the flavors meld.
While the sauce is simmering, cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and set aside.
Slice the cooked chicken into thin strips.
Add the sliced chicken back into the skillet with the sauce.
Combine the cooked spaghetti with the chicken and sauce, tossing to coat evenly.
Allow everything to heat through for 2-3 minutes.
Serve the Dairy-Free Chicken Spaghetti hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
