Categories     Main Course

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon olive oil
3 yellow onions (, large, sliced)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
10 oz mushrooms (, sliced (I used button mushrooms))
6 oz spinach
1 cup half-and-half
1 cup Parmesan cheese (, shredded)
1/4 teaspoon salt
8 oz farfalle pasta

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil on medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add sliced onions and cook on high heat for about 10 minutes, constantly stirring with the spatula.
  • The onions should start to brown, but without burning.
  • Reduce heat to medium and continue cooking onions for 10 more minutes, continuing to stir, as onions brown even more without burning. At this point add a pinch of salt over onions.
  • Continue cooking for 10 more minutes on medium or low heat, stirring occasionally to make sure onions don't stick to the bottom of the pan or burn.
  • In total, you should have cooked onions for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the onions with a small amount of balsamic vinegar to deglaze the pan.
  • Using a spatula, stir the onions, scraping the bottom of the pan and coating onions with a pinch of balsamic vinegar you just added. Remove caramelized onions to a plate.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in the same skillet on medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
  • Cook mushrooms for about 5 minutes, occasionally stirring, until mushrooms are soft.
  • Add fresh spinach to the skillet and stir on low heat just until spinach starts to wilt.
  • Add half-and-half to the mushroom and spinach mixture and bring to a quick boil. Immediately reduce to simmer.
  • Add 2/3 cup of shredded Parmesan cheese and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Keep stirring while the sauce simmers until the cheese melts.
  • Add caramelized onions back to the skillet with the pasta sauce.
  • Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain.
  • Add cooked and drained farfalle pasta to the creamy sauce. Stir on low heat for a couple of minutes to reheat.
  • If the sauce is too thick, add a small amount of half-and-half to thin it out. If it is too thin, add a small amount of shredded Parmesan cheese, and stir it in, while the sauce simmers.
  • Serve with more shredded parmesan cheese sprinkled on top.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 ounces bow-tie pasta (farfalle)
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth, plus more if needed for thinning
1/2 cup half-and-half
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 cup good-quality grated Parmesan
1 cup halved grape tomatoes
4 ounces baby spinach
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain and set aside.
  • Slice the chicken into thin strips and season with salt and pepper. Heat the butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook until deep golden brown on both sides and done in the middle. Remove the chicken from the skillet and add the minced garlic. Cook the garlic for 1 minute, then pour in the broth. Let it bubble up and reduce for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.
  • Next, add the half-and-half, cream and some salt and pepper. Add the Parmesan, whisking constantly until it's all combined. Allow the liquid to heat up and thicken for a few minutes. If it gets too thick, you may thin it with a little chicken broth.
  • When the sauce looks good, remove it from the heat. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet along with the grape tomatoes, spinach and pasta. Toss, taste, adjust the seasoning, top with minced parsley and serve immediately in the skillet!
