Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups chicken broth
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
1 1/2 cups dry tortellini
1 cup half-and-half cream
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
2 (6 ounce) cans crabmeat, drained
fresh ground pepper
additional shredded parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Bring chicken broth, minced garlic and basil to a boil in a medium saucepan.
  • Add tortellini and continue to boil for 10-12 minutes, or until most of the broth is absorbed.
  • Stir occasionally.
  • Do not drain pasta!
  • Add the half & half and simmer until most of the half & half is absorbed, about another 5 minutes.
  • Stir frequently so the pasta doesn't scorch.
  • Add the parmesan cheese and stir until it is melted and coats the tortellini.
  • Add the crab meat and stir gently to mix.
  • Top with freshly ground pepper and shredded parmesan to taste.

This recipe was a bit too rich for my taste. The sauce was very heavy, and the crab and tortellini were a bit too oily. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
