Instructions
-
First, make a cross in the tomato skins, place them in a bowl or a pot, and pour boiling water over them. Leave them to stand for a while, then pour the water away and peel the tomatoes. We also removed the core, but that's up to you.
-
Heat oil in a large pan and fry the chopped chicken. Add the tomatoes, cubed courgette, minced garlic, basil and salt. Let it simmer until most of the water has evaporated and the cougette is tender. Finally, add the olives.

Meanwhile, cook the pasta until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving a little bit of the pasta water aside. Add the cooked pasta and the pasta water to the tomato sauce, and simmer together for a little while.
