SUN-DRIED TOMATO CHICKEN ALFREDO

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and desired crispness is reached, 6 to 10 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels.
• Add chopped chicken thighs, garlic salt, and cantanzaro herbs to skillet and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 6 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken to a plate.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat until a pinch of flour sprinkled into the oil just begins to bubble. Whisk in flour to form a thick paste the consistency of cake frosting. Slowly add in milk, stirring constantly. Allow mixture to thicken, while stirring. Mix in fontina cheese, Parmesan, provolone, and sun-dried tomatoes. Stir to combine. Add drained pasta to sauce and mix well. Stir in cooked chicken and bacon.

TOMATO ALFREDO PASTA

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, bring the tomatoes to a boil. Cook until most of the liquid is evaporated, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat., Stir in the cream and basil; heat through (do not boil). Drain pasta. Add pasta and Parmesan cheese to sauce; toss to coat.

TOMATO-BASIL ALFREDO PASTA

Steps:

• Boil the noodles in a pot of water.
• In a medium-sized saucepan, saute the garlic, onions, and cherry tomatoes in the butter on medium heat.
• When the ingredients are sauteed, add the milk, basil, cayenne pepper, and Parmesan cheese.
• Stir the sauce and turn down to low heat. Smash the tomatoes as you stir the sauce to get the juice in the sauce.
• Keep the sauce on low heat, until the noodles are done boiling. If the noodles are done before the sauce, strain them, add them to the sauce, and stir.
• Top with more cheese and cayenne pepper if desired.
• Enjoy!
