So gooood. I got this recipe from a Hannaford recipe card. I usually double the cheese, because we really like cheese, haha.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons lemon juice
10 ounces chicken breasts, cooked, cut into pieces
16 ounces cheese tortellini
1 lb broccoli floret
2/3 cup italian cheese, shredded
Directions:
1. Fill a pot with water and place over high heat. Bring to a roiling boil.
2. In a microwave-safe dish, combine oil, garlic, chicken broth, and lemon juice. Add chicken and microwave on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds.
3. When water boils, add tortellini to pot and stir. When water returns to a gentle boil, add broccoli and stir. Stir occasionally until tortellini is done, approximately 8-11 minutes Drain tortellini and broccoli in a colander. Do not rinse.
4. Add sauce and chicken to pot. Add tortellini and 1/3 cup shredded cheese. Toss well to coat tortellini and broccoli and sauce.
5. To serve, divide pasta and sauce between 4 bowls. Garnish with remaining cheese. If desired, season with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper.
