  • Combine pasta, chicken, tomatoes and 2 tablespoons basil in a medium ovenproof skillet. Whisk broth, milk, sour cream, flour, onion powder, dry mustard, salt and pepper together in a measuring cup. Pour over the pasta mixture. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer, cover and cook, stirring twice, until the pasta is tender and the chicken is cooked through, 14 to 16 minutes.
