GREG'S SPECIAL ROTINI WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Pour whole box of pasta into a large skillet (approximately 12 inches in diameter). Pour 2 1/2 cups of cold water into the pan, ensuring that the water covers the pasta. Add mushrooms and wine and turn the burner to high, then set your timer for 10 minutes (optional: add a bit of salt to taste).
• Cook on high, stirring occasionally, until almost all of the liquid has evaporated.
• Add sauce and gently heat through, stirring to combine.
• Remove from heat and stir in cheese and parsley. Serve immediately.

ROTINI WITH BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir in the broccoli, and cook, uncovered, for 3 minutes. Remove the broccoli with a slotted spoon; set aside. Stir the rotini into the same pot, and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is cooked through, but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the garlic and crushed red pepper for 1 minute. Stir in the broccoli, chicken broth, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the broccoli is tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the drained pasta; cook over low heat for 1 minute. Stir in the Parmesan cheese.

CHICKEN ROTINI STOVETOP CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente; drain.
• Combine half-and-half and butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Boil gently, stirring, until mixture has reduced to 1 1/2 to 1 2/3 cups. Remove pan from heat; whisk in cheese, basil, oregano, chives, and parsley. Cover, and set aside.
• Saute chicken in a large skillet until lightly browned on both sides. Stir in green and red bell pepper, and cook until vegetables are tender, and chicken is no longer pink in the middle.
• In a casserole dish, combine the hot cooked pasta, chicken mixture, and sauce. Mix well, and serve immediately.
