Parmesan Chicken and Tortellini

I try so hard to make meat and I usually fail. Perhaps I should follow a recipe and not pretend like I know what I am doing. I wanted to attempt a chicken like at The Noodle Company. I've never actually tasted it, as I don't care for chicken, but my son loves it.
The reviews of my chicken were pitiful. I was told "Well, it tasted like chicken." So I won't bore you with the details until I perfect it. I'll just bore you with the pasta.

I started with a few diced tomatoes.

I sauteed it in a pan with a little olive oil and fresh garlic.

I had a little pesto left in a jar, so I put two huge spoonfuls in, along with salt and fresh ground pepper.

Boil tri colored tortellini.

I simmered the sauce down to reduce the chunkiness.

Then I poured the sauce over the tortellini and generously topped with fresh parmesan cheese.

My sad little chicken...

I served the pasta with roasted veggies, baby bleu salad and the chicken. This meal was a hit. There were elements of each dish that my boys enjoyed.
