Ingredients
- 1/2 pound uncooked fettuccine
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 2-in. strips
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 plum tomatoes, chopped
- 1/4 pound prosciutto, julienned
- 1 shallot, minced (about 2 tablespoons)

- 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese

Directions
- Cook fettuccine according to package directions for al dente; drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water. Transfer to a serving platter; keep warm.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Add to skillet; cook and stir until no longer pink, 4-6 minutes. Remove chicken. Add remaining oil to skillet; stir in next 5 ingredients and saute 4-6 minutes. Return chicken to skillet.
