This amazing restaurant quality WW Tuscan Chicken Pasta is to die for with very few major ingredients. This quick and easy recipe is full of flavor pasta with tender chicken. Once you make this amazing and simple dinner, you are going to make it again and again.

Is Tuscan Pasta a One Pot Meal? 

Yes, this is a one pot meal because it is made in an Instant pot. You can also, choose to make it in a pot on your stove with the same result. If you decide to make it on the stove, the chicken can be sautéed in the pot before adding the other ingredients or baked in an oven.

What Goes with This Pasta? 

You want to make sure you have sides that compliment the main dish. For a delicious selection of sides, be sure to add veggies or bread for the best choice. Roasted vegetables have great flavor or a side salad for a simple side dish. You can also choose between a garlic bread side dish or 2 ingredient Dough Breadsticks.
