Directions

1. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large broiler-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add ¼ cup panko and 1 teaspoon garlic. Cook, stirring, until the panko is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside. Wipe out the pan.
2. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, ¼ teaspoon salt and the remaining 1 tablespoon garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the chicken is no longer pink on the outside, about 2 minutes. Add 3 cups broth, 1½ cups tomatoes and 8 ounces penne. Bring to a boil and cook, uncovered, stirring frequently, until the penne is cooked and the sauce has reduced and thickened, 15 to 20 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, position an oven rack in the upper third of the oven. Preheat the broiler to high. When the pasta is cooked, sprinkle ½ cup mozzarella over the penne mixture. Place the pan under the broiler; broil until the mozzarella is bubbling and beginning to brown, about 1 minute. Top with the panko mixture, ¼ cup Parmesan and ¼ cup basil.
