Step #3: Add the chicken to the pan with salt and pepper to taste. Let the chicken cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it is lightly browned. Step #4: Next, add the tomatoes, garlic, and Italian seasoning to the chicken pan. Then, cook for 2-3 minutes until the chicken has an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (about 73.9 degrees Celsius). Step #5: Drain the pasta and broccoli and return them to the pot. Step #6: Add the chicken and tomatoes to the pot. Step #7: Add the pesto and parmesan cheese and combine. Garnish with parmesan cheese and parsley. Serve and enjoy!
