- In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add one diced yellow onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and lightly browned.
- Stir in 4 minced garlic cloves and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant and lightly golden.
- Increase heat to medium-high and pour in ½ cup of dry white wine. Allow to simmer for 3-4 minutes, reducing by half.
- Stir in 28 ounces of crushed San Marzano tomatoes, 1 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes, 1 tablespoon of Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, and a pinch of salt. Cover the pot and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 12 ounces of orecchiette pasta and cook until al dente, about 10-12 minutes.
- Add 2 cups of shredded rotisserie chicken to the sauce. Cook for another 3-4 minutes.
- Toss in fresh parsley and basil, stirring to incorporate.
- Before draining the pasta, reserve 1 cup of hot pasta water. Drain the orecchiette and add it to the sauce, mixing gently.
