Heat the oil from the sun-dried tomato jar in a large pot over medium-high heat. Season cubed chicken with half the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook until golden on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.

½ cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes (oil drained and reserved, tomatoes set aside)
1 lb boneless chicken breasts or thighs (cubed)

Add butter and chopped garlic to the same pot with the remaining Italian seasoning. Cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the pasta and 2 cups of water. Stir frequently until the pasta is al dente and most of the water is absorbed, roughly 8 minutes.
