I have made changes to this and this is truly one of my favorite recipes!! With the calories this has, I hate to even say I like the Ronzoni smart taste or Dreamfield pasta !! Once you see the calories it's like why bother ? But at least in my mind, I think I am doing myself a favor !!Daughter # 2 just called me yesterday for the recipe so she could make it for her sister's who are coming for dinner. Ingredients:
3 cups heavy cream |
1 chicken bouillon cube |
1/4 cup asiago cheese |
1 cup sun-dried tomato, chopped |
1 tablespoon cornstarch, mixed with 1 tbs water |
1/4 cup unsalted butter |
1 cup red onion, diced |
3 garlic cloves, diced |
1 cup green onion, chopped |
1/2 lb bacon, chopped |
1 cup white wine |
1 lb mushroom |
1 lb boneless chicken breast |
1 cup heavy cream |
fresh parsley |
1 (16 ounce) box penne pasta |
Directions:
1. In large pan- boil chicken in water until cooked set aside to cool.
2. When cool cut in small pieces.

6. This can be made ahead of time and put in fridge for later use.
