Pine Nut Crusted chicken with Angel Hair Pasta

6 tablespoons seasoned dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons finely chopped pine nuts
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, flattened between 2 pieces of plastic wrap until 1/2-inch thick
2 teaspoons olive oil
8 ounces uncooked angel-hair pasta
1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes seasoned with basil, garlic and oregano

In a shallow dish, combine bread crumbs and pine nuts. Add chicken and turn to coat both sides. Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken 3 minutes per side until golden brown. Reduce heat to medium, cover and cook 1-2 minutes, until chicken is cooked through. 
Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package. Drain and toss with diced tomatoes. Serve chicken with pasta.
