CHICKEN IN TOMATO-BASIL CREAM SAUCE



Chicken in Tomato-Basil Cream Sauce image

This recipe was inspired by all our fresh garden tomatoes and herbs. In summer, I grill the chicken with some Italian seasonings and a bit of garlic powder, but on rainy days or in winter, I cook it on the stovetop. -Rachel Kowasic, Connellsville, Pennsylvania

GEMELLI PASTA WITH CHICKEN RECIPE



Gemelli Pasta with Chicken Recipe image

Provided by Queenbee_47

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 boneless Chicken Breasts, cut into bite size pieces
2 tblsp. Olive Oil
1 lb. Gemelli Pasta
1 can diced tomatoes, prefer S&W w/garlic
1 medium sweet Onion, thinly sliced
2 Garlic cloves, minced
5-6 baby Portabellos or crimini mushrooms, sliced
4-5 Sun-dried Tomatoes, thinly sliced
1/4 tsp. Red Pepper flakes
3/4 cup dry White Wine
3/4 cup Heavy Cream
1 1/2 tsp. McCormick's Pizza Seasoning
5-6 fresh Basil leaves,thinly sliced
Salt and Pepper to taste
Shaved Parmesean to garnish

Steps:

  • Season chicken liberally with salt and pepper. Boil pasta according to package directions and reserve up to a cup of pasta water. In a large skillet, brown chicken in 1 tlbsp. of the olive oil. Remove chicken when browned and set to the side. Add other 1 tlbsp of olive oil, then add onion and garlic and red pepper flakes, saute about a minute and add mushrooms. Cook another 2 minutes and add diced tomatoes and the white wine. Cook one more minute, then add heavy cream and pizza seasoning. Add more salt and pepper to taste. Add well drained pasta and 3/4 cup to 1 cup of the reserved pasta water along with the chicken. Add basil and shave parmesean and serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your dish shine. Look for ripe tomatoes, tender chicken, and crisp vegetables.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken and vegetables, make sure to give them enough space so that they can brown properly. If you overcrowd the pan, the food will steam instead of sear.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: Al dente means "to the tooth" in Italian, and it refers to the ideal texture for cooked pasta. Al dente pasta is slightly firm to the bite and has a slight chewiness to it. It's important to cook the pasta according to the package directions, but be sure to keep an eye on it so that you don't overcook it.
  • Make the sauce ahead of time: The tomato basil cream sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance. This makes it a great option for busy weeknights or for entertaining guests.
  • Serve with a side of crusty bread: Crusty bread is the perfect accompaniment to this rich and flavorful dish. Serve it on the side so that your guests can sop up all of the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

This gemelli with chicken and vegetables in tomato basil cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich and flavorful sauce, tender chicken, and crisp vegetables, this dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
