For the sauce

3 cloves garlic, minced
½ tsp red pepper flakes
½ cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained and roughly chopped

Instructions

1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add 1 tbsp kosher salt, then cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente — tender with a slight resistance at the center. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta cooking water before draining, then drain and set the pasta aside.
2
While the water heats, pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine the kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika, then season both sides of each breast evenly.
