Best 2 Olive Garden Pollo San Marco Recipes

OLIVE GARDEN POLLO SAN MARCO

Steps:

• Preheat a heavy non-aluminum Dutch oven over moderately high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is fragrant, add the chicken meat pieces and sauté, turning frequently for 5 or 6 minutes until lightly browned on all sides.
• Add the onions and carrots and sauté, stirring constantly, until the onions are translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté about 30 seconds. Do not allow the garlic to brown. Immediately add the broth to the pot. Stir bits and pieces loose from the bottom of the pot.
• Add all additional ingredients, except Wondra Flour, and lower the heat to a gentle simmer. Ladle out 1 ladle worth of liquid into a measuring cup. Mix flour into liquid to make a slurry. Pour mixture back into pot and stir. Cover with lid and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the chicken meat pieces are tender, but not soft, about 5 to 10 minutes.
• As the sauce is finishing cooking, add 3 tbsp oil to a heavy skillet and sauté the bell peppers, squashes and broccoli over medium heat until just crisp-tender. Add the veggies to the sauce when the chicken meat is tender, blend all together and simmer 10 minutes.
• Adjust the salt, pepper and herb levels to taste. Toss the cooked pasta with 1 tbsp oil to prevent sticking and add to the sauce; blend chicken, veggies and sauce thoroughly and serve along with Parmesan cheese.

OLIVE GARDEN FLORENTINE LASAGNA

Steps:

• Steam spinach until tender then press out excess moisture and chop coarsely. Mix mushrooms, onions and garlic and saute over medium-high heat until onions are tender. Drain excess liquid and cool.
• Mix ricotta cheese, 2/3 cup parmesan, egg, salt, pepper, basil and oregano in large bowl. Add cooled spinach and mushroom-onion mixture and mix on low speed until just blended.
• Cook lasagna according to package directions then rinse under cool water and drain thoroughly. Place four lasagna strips in bottom of lightly oiled 9x13" pan, overlapping slightly. Top with 2 cups spinach filling. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese and 1/3 cup parmesan. Repeat layering two more times and top with remaining four lasagna strips. Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce over top (make sure all noodles have sauce on them so they don't dry out) and cover tightly with foil.
• Preheat oven to 350F and bake, covered, for 1 hour. Turn oven off and allow lasagna to sit for at least 30 minutes before removing from oven. Allow 10 minutes wait time before cutting. Top with extra Parmesan cheese. (Can be refrigerated for up to a day in advance of baking, if desired.).
