This is probably my favorite dinner. Simple, but so delicious!
1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts
1-1/2 c. lemon juice
2 tbsp. dried tarragon
12 oz. spaghetti or linguine
4 tomatoes
Put the chicken in a glass baking dish. Pour the lemon juice over the chicken. Sprinkle the chicken with the dried tarragon. Cover the dish with foil- bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink. Meanwhile, cook and drain the pasta. Toss hot pasta with butter and salt to taste. Remove chicken from oven and transfer to serving plate- discard lemon juice. Serve chicken with buttered pasta and cold sliced tomatoes.

This is super easy, but it tastes like something from a nice Italian restaurant. It’s great for company. Of course, you need a fresh green salad and some hot garlic bread to go with it.
8 oz. uncooked linguine
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
6 green onions, sliced
1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
4 tsp. dried basil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
3 tbsp. butter
Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large serving bowl, combine the tomatoes, onions, Parmesan cheese, basil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Drain pasta and toss with butter. Add to tomato mixture; toss to coat. Serves 3 or so.
