SUN-DRIED TOMATO CHICKEN ALFREDO



Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken Alfredo image

This is a decadent version of chicken Alfredo. It has three different types of cheese, bacon, and sun-dried tomatoes. It does use a few pots and pans, but the end result is worth it.

Provided by thedailygourmet

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ pound penne pasta
6 ounces bacon, chopped
½ pound boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
½ teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon cantanzaro herbs (from Savory Spice Shop®)
¼ cup butter
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
½ cup grated fontina cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup provolone cheese
1 ¾ ounces chopped sun-dried tomatoes

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and desired crispness is reached, 6 to 10 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels.
  • Add chopped chicken thighs, garlic salt, and cantanzaro herbs to skillet and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 6 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken to a plate.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat until a pinch of flour sprinkled into the oil just begins to bubble. Whisk in flour to form a thick paste the consistency of cake frosting. Slowly add in milk, stirring constantly. Allow mixture to thicken, while stirring. Mix in fontina cheese, Parmesan, provolone, and sun-dried tomatoes. Stir to combine. Add drained pasta to sauce and mix well. Stir in cooked chicken and bacon.

Provided by foodworthfeed

Categories     Dinner

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 (6 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breast
1 recipe Chicken Seasoning ((Ingredients listed below))
3 Tablespoons olive oil
5 cloves garlic (peeled and smashed)
4 ounces olive oil preserved sun-dried tomatoes (chopped, plus extra for garnishing, as desired )
2 Cups chicken broth (preferably homemade)
1 Cup heavy cream
fine kosher salt* (to taste)
Fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
4 ounces Parmesan cheese (fresh-grated, plus more for garnishing, as desired)
Fresh basil (to taste, garnish)
1 pound fettuccine pasta
½ Cup pasta water (reserved from the cooking pot)
2 Tablespoons balsamic glaze
1 Tablespoon fine kosher salt* (plus extra for salting the pasta water)
1 Tablespoon smoked paprika
1 Tablespoon dried oregano
1½ teaspoons garlic powder
¾ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
¾ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients (salt, smoked paprika, dried oregano, garlic powder, black pepper, and cayenne, if using) in a medium bowl. Whisk to combine. Set aside.
  • Set a large pot of water to rapid boil.Meanwhile, prepare the chicken. (See Note: a) With paper towels, pat the chicken dry, add chicken to the bowl of Chicken Seasoning and coat entirely.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat until shimmering. Add chicken to pan and cook, undisturbed, for about 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165° Fahrenheit (74° celsius). Remove chicken from the pan and set aside to rest.
  • Lower the pans heat to medium-low and add garlic and sun-dried tomatoes. Sauté for 1 - 2 minutes until aromatic.
  • Add chicken stock and deglaze the pan by using a wooden spoon to scrape up any caramelized brown bits from the bottom. Bring to a boil, reduce to simmer and stir in heavy cream. Once simmering, remove the sauce from the heat. Carefully puree the sauce in a blender until smooth.
  • Return the sun dried tomato alfredo sauce to the saucepan over medium-low heat and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring often. Add Parmesan cheese in two or three additions, stirring to melt until smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Lower the heat and stir occasionally while completing the next steps.
  • Generously season your large pot of boiling water with salt. Add your fettuccine to the pot and cook until it is just under al-dente doneness. Be careful not to overcook. Using tongs, remove your fettucine from the boiling water and add directly into your alfredo sauce. Add pasta water and stir vigorously to thickly coat the fettuccine in sauce. Cook 1 - 3 minutes until the pastas' desired doneness is reached.
  • Meanwhile, slice your chicken into bite-sized pieces. Stir chicken and any accumulated juices into the pasta. (You can reserve a few larger slices of chicken for presenting the dish, if desired.)Garnish with fresh basil, more sun dried tomatoes, extra Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of balsamic glaze! Serve hot with crusty Italian bread. Enjoy!
