This pasta dish looks and tastes great. It looks stunning served in bowls or large, restaurant-like plates. I love sun-dried tomatoes and fresh basil! The pine nuts add a nice touch. Roast the pine nuts in a skillet on low heat. Watch the nuts as they turn brown (and then black) suddenly. Serve this tasty dish with fresh parmesan cheese and a glass of wine. Ingredients:
1 (270 g) jar sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil |
500 g chicken breasts, cut into thin stripes |
2 garlic cloves, crushed |
125 ml cream (use more if desired) |
2 tablespoons fresh basil, cut into stripes |
400 g penne, cooked |
2 tablespoons pine nuts, roasted |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Cut the sun-dried tomatoes into thin stripes. Keep the oil.
2. Heat wok or large skillet. Add 1 tablespoons of the kept oil.
3. Fry meat in 2-3 portions. Add more oil if necessary.
4. Add fried meat to the wok again.
5. Add garlic, tomatoes and cream. Cook on low heat for 4-5 minutes.
6. Add cooked penne and basil and mix. Leave on stove until penne are warm.
7. Season with salt and pepper.
8. Serve in bowls and top with roasted pine nuts.
