This is something I came up with to have a restaurant style pasta dish at home. You can vary the sauce used, in order to change the recipe. It also works great with a red pepper sauce or an alfredo sauce. I used to use white mushrooms, but the potabellos really brought it to the next level. Ingredients:
350 g penne pasta |
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts |
1/4 cup red wine |
3 garlic cloves |
1/2 spanish onions or 1/2 vidalia onion, thickly diced |
1/2 red pepper, thickly sliced |
1/2 green pepper, thickly sliced |
2 portabella mushroom caps, thickly sliced |
1 roma tomato, diced |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 cups marinara sauce (i use recipe no. 95168) |
Directions:
1. Cut up chicken into bite sized pieces.
2. Marinate in wine and 1 crushed clove of garlic for 1 hour.
3. Cook pasta according to package instructions and set aside.
4. Chop up all vegetables.
5. In large skillet heat 1 Tbsp olive oil on med high.
6. Add chicken and stir-fry until it just turns opaque.
7. Remove chicken and set aside.
8. Heat remaining olive oil and add onions and mushrooms.
9. Stir-fry about 5 minutes.
10. Add peppers and stir-fry about 5 minutes.
