Preheat the oven to 400. Boil your water for the pasta and put your marinara on to warm up.
In a small bowl mix your ricotta and milk together well to thin out the ricotta a little.
Next, pat you chicken dry and arrange them on a baking dish. Spread each breast with a couple tablespoons of ricotta each. Sprinkle each breast with salt, pepper, and dried basil.
Grate the Parmesan and make your breadcrumbs in a food processor. Add the cheese to the breadcrumbs and lightly season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle crumbs over chicken breasts liberally. Press into chicken to ensure a good stick.
Bake in the oven for 20-30 minutes or until juices run clear.
Cook the angel hair. Slice the chicken and serve on top of pasta with a healthy ladle full of marinara sauce.
