Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain, then transfer to a large bowl, toss with a drizzle of olive oil to prevent sticking, and set aside.
- Season the chicken breasts on both sides with 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the chicken and cook, flipping halfway, until golden brown on both sides and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C), about 12 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let cool slightly, then chop into ½-inch cubes.
- In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened and fragrant, about 4 minutes. Carefully pour in the white wine. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, then simmer until the liquid has fully evaporated, 2-3 minutes. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and stir to incorporate.
- Sprinkle in the flour and stir until the vegetables are fully coated. Cook for 2 minutes, until the flour is golden brown and smells nutty. Add the milk, oregano, remaining ½ teaspoon salt, remaining ¼ teaspoon pepper, and the kale. Cook, stirring often, until the kale has wilted and the sauce has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Add the mozzarella, white cheddar, and Parmesan cheeses and stir until fully melted and incorporated, about 2 minutes. Add the cooked pasta to the pan and stir until well coated in the sauce. Stir in the chicken.
- Remove the pan from the heat. Sprinkle the mac and cheese with the parsley and serve immediately with more Parmesan cheese for topping.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
- Use High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly affect the taste of your dish. Whenever possible, use fresh, organic, and locally-sourced ingredients.
- Don't Overcook the Chicken: Chicken is a delicate meat that can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook it just until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Use a Variety of Vegetables: This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Feel free to add any vegetables you like, such as broccoli, zucchini, or bell peppers.
- Don't Skimp on the Cream: The cream is what makes this dish so rich and flavorful. Don't be afraid to use a full cup of cream, or even more if you like.
- Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it's made. The sauce will thicken as it cools, so if you need to make it ahead of time, be sure to reheat it gently before serving.
Conclusion:
Tuscan Creamy Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand, and it can be ready in under an hour. Serve it with a side of pasta, rice, or vegetables for a complete meal.
