tomatoes
1/4 cup (packed) fresh basil
leaves, coarsely chopped
1 package (10-ounce) frozen
peas, thawed
Grated Parmesan cheese
(optional)

in boiling salted water; drain.

saucepan or saucepot, heat olive oil
over medium heat. Add garlic;
cook until golden, about 5 minutes.

heat. Then, carefully add chicken
broth, tomatoes with their juice,
basil and 1/2 cup water. Return
