This is one of my favorites. Great with a crusty loaf of french bread! Would also be tasty with shrimp or scallops instead of the chicken. You can adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your liking. The cooking time is for the rigatoni. I give directions for grilling the chicken with an indoor grill, but you can grill or cook the chicken any way you prefer.

Steps:
- Cook the rigatoni according to package directions. Drain, place back in the pot, and stir in the olive oil (to avoid sticking).
- Grill the chicken breasts on an indoor grill, 6 minutes per side or until juices run clear. Cut into strips.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Slowly whisk in the flour until smooth and pasty.
- Add milk gradually, whisking well after each small addition, then until no clumps can be seen.
- Add the sundried tomatoes.
- Heat over medium, whisking constantly, until heated and thick (sauce will thicken the more you cook it).
- Add the pesto sauce and mix well.
- Sprinkle the parmesan in, and whisk.
- Add the crushed garlic,chopped tomato, white (or black) pepper, and red pepper flakes.
- Remove from heat, and add salt to taste.
- Pour over rigatoni, mix and serve!

[email protected]I had some trouble getting the chicken to cook evenly. I ended up having to cook it for a few extra minutes, but it was still a little dry. I think I would try grilling the chicken separately next time.

[email protected]This dish was a little too rich for my taste. The Alfredo sauce was very heavy and the pesto was a bit overpowering. I think I would prefer it with a lighter sauce.

[email protected]This dish was a bit too time-consuming for me. I had to make the pesto and Alfredo sauce from scratch, and it took a while. I think I would prefer a recipe that uses store-bought sauces.
