Pour the remaining 1/3 c. of olive oil into the skillet with the red pepper flake, parsley, and garlic. Cook on low heat until the garlic is translucent, then add the tomato, chicken, and artichoke. Add some salt and pepper to taste, then remove from heat and toss in the lemon zest and lemon juice, mixing thoroughly.

In the boiling water, add your pasta and cook for 3-4 minutes until al dente. Drain the pasta, but reserve a small amount of the pasta water.

Toss the pasta with the sauce / chicken / artichoke mixture, adding some pasta water if you need a little more liquid, and serve!
