To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup penne pasta
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup tomato sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Fresh parsley for garnish

To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken breast in the mixture, making sure to press the mixture onto the chicken to create a crust.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes until cooked through.
While the chicken is baking, cook the penne pasta according to the package instructions. In a separate skillet, heat the tomato sauce, heavy cream, and red pepper flakes over medium heat. Once the sauce is heated through, add the cooked penne pasta and toss to coat.
To serve, slice the chicken breast and place it on top of the penne pasta. Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!
