Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Grab a 9 by 13 baking dish.

Dice, slice, and mince all ingredients.

Add 400 grams of grape tomatoes to the baking dish.

Follow with 300 grams of diced criminis mushrooms.

Add 1.5 diced medium yellow onion.

Add 4 to 5 cloves of minced garlic.

Season generously with salt, pepper, basil, thyme, and oregano.

Top with 1/4 cup of olive oil.

Using freshly washed hands, mix everything to coat in seasoning and oil.

Add about 16 ounces of pre-seasoned chicken breast cut into small strips.

Add 1/4 cup of red wine vinegar and mix well.

Add 7 ounces of herb goat cheese log on top.

Cover the dish with a lid or tin foil and bake for 30 minutes.

While the dish is baking, boil pasta.

After 30 minutes, remove the dish from the oven; the vegetables should be nicely cooked, the chicken thoroughly cooked, and the cheese soft.

Add the boiled pasta directly into the baking dish and mix everything together.
