Steps to make Parmesan Zucchini Tomato Chicken Spaghetti

1	Heat oil	2
Place 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
2	Cook zucchini	5
Once hot, add 1 sliced zucchini and sprinkle with a little salt. Sauté for about 5 minutes, flipping once halfway through. When the zucchini is tender and lightly browned, remove it from the skillet.
3	Cook chicken	5
Place one teaspoon of olive oil and sliced chicken breast in the same skillet. Season with salt and cook for about 5-7 minutes on medium heat, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
4	Add pesto	1
Remove the skillet from the heat, and combine ¼ cup of basil pesto with the cooked chicken slices.
5	Cook pasta	8
Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan with 1 tablespoon of salt. Cook 8 ounces of spaghetti until al dente according to the package instructions.
6	Drain spaghetti	2
Drain the spaghetti and add to the skillet with the chicken.
7	Add tomatoes and pesto	2
Add 1 cup each of halved red and yellow cherry tomatoes. Add another ¼ cup of basil pesto. Stir the ingredients together, and gently reheat over low-medium heat.
8	Taste and adjust seasoning	1
Taste the pasta and add extra pesto and salt, if needed. Remove the pan from heat.
9	Add Parmesan	1
Scatter ⅓ cup of shredded Parmesan cheese over the cooked pasta in the skillet.
10	Serve
Serve individual plates with extra Parmesan.
