Instructions

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the instructions on the packaging. When the pasta is al dente, drain it in a colander and set aside.

2. While waiting for the water to boil and the pasta to cook, place a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes and cook for about 1 minute, stirring frequently, until fragrant. Add the artichoke hearts and chicken (if using) and saute for another 2-3 minutes. Add the crushed tomatoes and simmer for another 5 minutes. Taste the sauce for seasoning, and add salt if needed.

3. Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss to combine. Garnish with fresh herbs and grated Parmesan and serve immediately.
