Method:

In a shallow dish, combine breadcrumbs and pine nuts.
Flatten chicken breasts between 2 pieces of cling film until 1 cm thick. Add chicken to breadcrumbs and turn to coat both sides.
Heat oil in a large, nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds.
Add chicken and cook for 3 minutes each side, until golden brown. Reduce heat to medium, add canned tomato and fresh basil. Cover and cook for 1 to 2 more minutes, until chicken is cooked through. Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large saucepan of rapidly boiling water until tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and serve topped with chicken.
