Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
Kosher salt
1 pound farfalle pasta
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large or 2 small shallots, sliced
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
One 12-ounce bunch Swiss chard, center stems removed and leaves chopped into 1-inch pieces
1 cup mascarpone cheese, at room temperature (8 ounces)
2 store-bought rotisserie chicken breasts, diced into 1/2-inch pieces to yield 2 cups of meat

Steps:

  • Boil the broth and mushrooms over medium-high heat in a small saucepan. Turn off the heat and allow the mushrooms to soften in the liquid, about 20 minutes. Remove the mushrooms and coarsely chop. Reserve the liquid.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Cook the pasta until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and reserve about 1 cup pasta water.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large nonstick saute pan. Add the shallots mushrooms, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cook until the shallots are soft, about 3 minutes. Add the chard in batches and cook until wilted, about 7 minutes. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon salt and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and add the mascarpone cheese. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add the mushroom mixture, chicken and the reserved mushroom-cooking liquid to the pasta. Add reserved pasta water if necessary. Toss until all the ingredients are coated and serve.

FARFALLE DEL MONDO

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 or 5 boneless chicken breasts
Kosher salt
Fresh ground black pepper
Southwest seasoning (chili powder, Mexican oregano, garlic powder, ground chipotles (smoked jalepenos), paprika, ground cumin and ground coriander)
Olive oil, to coat
2 1/2 tablespoons pine nuts
1 pound multi-colored farfalle pasta
12 ounces triple cream brie cheese
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 cups hand-chopped ripe Roma tomatoes
3 teaspoons chopped garlic
2 tablespoons hand-chopped Italian parsley or cilantro
6 large fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Pound the chicken breasts to even thickness with a meat mallet to cook evenly. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Sprinkle southwest seasoning on both sides of chicken. Lightly coat with olive oil. Grill chicken over coals with mesquite or hickory chips added. (In metal tray if using a gas grill). Rotate chicken a quarter turn after a few minutes to add grill marks. Turn chicken over after about 5 to 7 minutes and grill the other side the same way. When chicken is done (moist and tender) take off the grill and let rest.
  • Bring a large pot of slightly salted water to a boil for the pasta. Add pasta and cook until it is al dente. Keep cooked pasta covered and warm in a slight bit of its water. In a small, ungreased frying pan, toast pine nuts until they are golden brown. Key - Do NOT burn the pine nuts or the entire dish will taste bitter. Cut the outer covering (rind) off the brie. Throw away the rind and set the cheese aside. Heat a large frying pan to medium-high heat and add all of the olive oil. After 30 seconds or so add the tomato, garlic, parsley/cilantro and basil. Let this saute for about 1 minute. Key - have all of the ingredients ready and next to the stove because this sauce works fast! Add the brie and toasted pine nuts. Toss or slowly stir over low heat for two minutes or until the cheese is completely incorporated into the sauce. You should have a medium thick sauce with a beautifully rich pink color with splashes of green. Drain the remaining water off the pasta in a colander. Place a nice portion of pasta on a decorative plate. Chop the chicken breasts on a bias and place on top of the pasta. Ladle a fair amount of the brie sauce over the chicken and pasta.

FARFALLE WITH CHICKEN, MUSHROOMS, SPINACH AND RICOTTA CHEESE



Farfalle With Chicken, Mushrooms, Spinach and Ricotta Cheese image

This is a nice light pasta - the sauce isn't heavy (or, really, very saucy at all) and the ricotta makes it just a touch creamy. It's also quite healthy. This is one of those recipes that can be made quickly with what you have in the kitchen! Instead of overdoing the pasta - we used whole wheat pasta & bulked it up with veggies and lean chicken breast. The finished dish is very eye appealing and tastes marvelous! ellysaysopa.com. :)

Tips:

  • Mise en place: As with any recipe, having all your ingredients prepped and measured before you start cooking will make the process much smoother. This is especially important for this recipe, as there are quite a few steps involved.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients are, the better your dish will taste. This is especially true for the mushrooms and Swiss chard.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken and mushrooms, be sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: Al dente pasta is pasta that is cooked through but still has a slight bite to it. This is the ideal texture for pasta dishes.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste the dish before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed.
