CHICKEN FLORENTINE PASTA



Chicken Florentine Pasta image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 16m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound penne
Salt
4 whole boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size chunks
Ground pepper
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 cup low-sodium broth, more if needed
3/4 cup dry white wine
1 bag baby spinach
2 cups grape tomatoes, halved lengthwise
4 ounces Parmesan, shaved with a vegetable peeler, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta according to package directions in lightly salted water. Drain and set aside.
  • Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the butter and olive oil over high heat in a large skillet. Add the chicken chunks in a single layer and do not stir for a minute or two in order to allow the chicken to brown on the first side. Flip the chicken and brown on the other side. Cook until done, and then remove the chicken from the skillet.
  • Turn the heat to medium. Add the garlic and quickly stir to avoid burning. After about 30 seconds, pour in the broth and wine, stirring to deglaze the skillet. Allow the liquid to bubble up, and then continue cooking until it's reduced by at least half (most of the surface of the liquid should be bubbling at this point).
  • Turn off the heat. Add the spinach, tomatoes, chicken, cooked pasta and Parmesan shavings to the skillet. Toss to combine; the spinach will wilt as you toss everything.
  • Add more Parmesan shavings and serve immediately! Serve with extra Parmesan shavings.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 ounces bow-tie pasta (farfalle)
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth, plus more if needed for thinning
1/2 cup half-and-half
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 cup good-quality grated Parmesan
1 cup halved grape tomatoes
4 ounces baby spinach
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain and set aside.
  • Slice the chicken into thin strips and season with salt and pepper. Heat the butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook until deep golden brown on both sides and done in the middle. Remove the chicken from the skillet and add the minced garlic. Cook the garlic for 1 minute, then pour in the broth. Let it bubble up and reduce for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.
  • Next, add the half-and-half, cream and some salt and pepper. Add the Parmesan, whisking constantly until it's all combined. Allow the liquid to heat up and thicken for a few minutes. If it gets too thick, you may thin it with a little chicken broth.
  • When the sauce looks good, remove it from the heat. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet along with the grape tomatoes, spinach and pasta. Toss, taste, adjust the seasoning, top with minced parsley and serve immediately in the skillet!

TUNA CASSEROLE WITH BOW TIES, MUSHROOMS AND PARMESAN



Tuna Casserole With Bow Ties, Mushrooms and Parmesan image

This is a great from scratch Tuna Casserole. No canned soup here, an easy Parmesan cream sauce with just a touch of cayenne to give it a nice kick. Red bell peppers, green onions and mushrooms give it the right flavor and colors to pull an ordinary tuna casserole to over the top. This recipe comes from Art Smith's cookbook "Kitchen Life" which I am enjoying very much! When I make this again, I will probably substitute Ritz cracker crumbs for the dried bread crumbs to add a little more pizzaz to the top.

  • Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables in your Bow Tie Tuna Florentine should be tender but still slightly crisp. Overcooked vegetables will lose their flavor and texture.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what brings all the flavors of Bow Tie Tuna Florentine together. Be sure to use a sauce that is flavorful and creamy, such as a béchamel or Alfredo sauce.
  • Serve immediately: Bow Tie Tuna Florentine is best served immediately after it is made. This will ensure that the pasta is al dente and the vegetables are still crisp.
