This recipe is sooo good and definitely not low fat. The creamy sun-dried tomato Asiago sauce is delicious! Ingredients:
2 cups heavy cream |
1 cube chicken bouillon |
1 tablespoon asiago cheese |
1 tablespoon cornstarch, mixed with equal parts water |
1 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes |
1 (16 ounce) package bow tie pasta |
3/4 cup bacon |
1/4 cup butter |
1 cup diced red onion |
2 cloves garlic, chopped |
1 cup chopped green onion |
1 pound grilled skinless, boneless chicken breast, diced |
1 cup heavy cream |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan over medium heat, cook 2 cups cream until just bubbling. Watch carefully, to ensure that it doesn't boil over. Stir in bouillon and Asiago cheese. Stir with a whisk until dissolved. Add cornstarch mixture, and simmer until sauce is thickened, stirring constantly. Mix in the sun-dried tomatoes. Set aside, or cover and refrigerate for later use.
2. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain. Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
3. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Saute red onion until soft and translucent. Stir in garlic and cooked bacon, and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in green onions, chicken and 1 cup cream. Cook, stirring, until cream is heated through. Add Asiago cream sauce, and heat through. Toss with cooked pasta until evenly coated, and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
