CHICKEN PASTA PRIMAVERA FOR WEEKDAYS



Chicken Pasta Primavera for Weekdays image

A quick non-creamy weeknight primavera using cooked chicken. Found in California Sizzles. Notes: A 14.5 ounce can of peeled Roma tomatoes equals 4-5 fresh tomatoes; drain before adding. The whole canned tomatoes tend to be higher quality than those used for cut up varieties, but Progresso, Muir Glen, and Contadina are highly rated brands. If using frozen broccoli (if you don't live in California!), please thaw prior to adding. A one-pound bunch of fresh broccoli will yield 4 cups of florets. Made 6/16/12: used florets from 1 crown of broccoli, Fire-roasted tomatoes (drained), pulled meat from 1/2 rotisserie chicken. This was mild - family friendly. We will make again using Rotel, or serve with red pepper flakes or Mrs. Dash Fiesta Lime seasoning. Used tri-colored garden rotini, but would look better on angel hair. My fresh broccoli only needed 7 minutes before adding chicken. Because I used rotisserie chicken and canned tomatoes, I did not add additional salt.

DAIRY FREE CHICKEN PASTA PRIMAVERA (GLUTEN FREE)



Dairy Free Chicken Pasta Primavera (Gluten Free) image

I created this and it is delicious and dairy free! Pasta primavera is an Italian-American dish that consists of pasta and vegetables. A meat such as chicken, sausage or shrimp is sometimes added, but the focus of primavera is the vegetables themselves. The dish may contain almost any kind of vegetable, but cooks tend to stick to firm, crisp vegetables, such as broccoli, carrots, peas, onions and green bell peppers, with tomatoes. Pasta primavera is usually highlighted by light flavors, aromatic herbs and bright colors ('primavera' meaning the season of spring). Classic pasta primavera is based on a soffritto of garlic, olive oil, and Parmesan cheese, but versions based on a heavier cream or Alfredo sauce are also common. Though recipes for cold pasta primavera may be found, they are best classified as antipasti, or appetizers. Pastas served with this dish are typically smaller shapes, such as penne, farfalle, rigatoni and fusilli. If using longer types of pasta, such as spaghetti or fettuccine, the vegetables are normally sliced in thin strips to match the shape of the noodles.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 45m

Yield 3 , 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup oil, separated
4 tablespoons rice flour (gluten free)
rice pasta, macaroni, penne, fusilli (to be gluten free)
1/2 cup helmans olive oil mayonnaise (to be soy free)
3 1/2 cups chicken stock (I make my own homemade, chicken bones, celery leaves & stalk, organic carrots, half a cooking onion,)
sea salt
fresh ground black pepper
1/2 cup frozen baby peas
5 mixed mushrooms, sliced
2 organic carrots, cut in very small chunks
2 chicken breasts, cubed
sweet paprika, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oil (I use canola oil here) reserving 2 tbs.
  • Add rice flour and stir until bubbling and cook just 1 minute over medium-high heat.
  • Gradually add the chicken stock 1/4 cup at a time whisking with each addition until a sauce like consistency is reached, may or may not use all stock as amount was approximate.
  • Remove from heat and add Helmans olive oil mayonnaise to be soy free. Mix and return to heat whisking for 1/2 -1 minute.
  • Remove from heat and adjust seasoning with sea salt.
  • Heat remaining 2 tbs oil (I use olive oil in this case) in a frying pan and brown chicken peices lightly adding sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  • Add frozen peas to chicken and cook a minute or 2 until no longer frozen.
  • Steam carrots and mushrooms individually in salted water until cooked to desired tenderness.
  • Mix all together.
  • Serve on top of freshly boiled rice pasta in small desired shape and sprinkle with paprika for colour.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your dish is cooked properly.
  • Choose Fresh Vegetables: The fresher the vegetables, the better your dish will taste. If possible, buy organic vegetables from a local farmer's market or grocery store.
  • Cook the Pasta Al Dente: Al dente means "to the tooth" in Italian. This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is just tender, but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant to eat.
  • Use a Large Pan: A large pan will help to ensure that the pasta and vegetables cook evenly. If you use a pan that is too small, the food will be crowded and will not cook properly.
  • Season the Dish Generously: Don't be afraid to add plenty of salt and pepper to taste. This will help to bring out the flavors of the vegetables and pasta.
  • Serve Immediately: Chicken Pasta Primavera is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to ensure that the pasta is al dente and the vegetables are still crisp and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Chicken Pasta Primavera is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. It is packed with fresh vegetables, lean protein, and whole-wheat pasta. Plus, it is easy to customize to your own liking. So next time you are looking for a tasty and nutritious meal, give Chicken Pasta Primavera a try!
