Steps:

• PREHEAT oven to 350
• POUND chicken breasts to an even thickness
• POUR the marinade over the chicken
• BAKE chicken for 25 minutes
• PREPARE tortellini according to package directions. I am using a dried tortellini, so when I put the chicken in the oven, I started my water boiling.

Steps:

• Depending on how thick or thin of a sauce you like will depend on how much heavy cream you use add garlic to YOUR taste I love garlic so I use 2 heaping tablespoons.
• Over medium heat in a saucepan melt 1 stick of butter and add the entire container of Parmesan cheese and begin to whisk.
• Add garlic slowly.
• Add heavy cream, again whisking until no longer lumpy. At this temp it should come to a boil on its own. When it does, slowly add more heavy cream until the consistency YOU desire, and then remove from heat.
