Butternut Squash and Chicken Pasta image

The butternut squash somewhat melts into a delicious sauce coating the chicken and the pasta with all its lovely goodness. I got the idea from Everyday Italian's Giada DeLaurentis but left out the shrimp, eggplant and use chicken instead.

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
3 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 lbs chicken breasts, cut into 1 inch peices
1 small butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
3 1/4 cups chicken broth
12 ounces pasta

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a heavy large nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Add onion and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for just a minute. Add the cubed chicken and cook through. Add squash, rosemary and saute for 8 to 10 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Decrease the heat to medium-low and simmer until the squash is tender and the liquid is reduced by about half, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring often. Drain pasta.
  • Toss the pasta and squash mixture in a large bowl until the liquid thickens slightly and coats the pasta. Transfer the pasta mixture to a wide shallow bowl and serve.
