Skillet Chicken Tortellini Alfredo image

Store-bought tortellini are the star of this quick and creamy weeknight meal. They simmer in their own sauce, making this a one-skillet meal with easy cleanup. Try one-inch pieces of Italian sausage instead of chicken for a variation.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
2 pinches freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan
Kosher salt
18 ounces frozen cheese tortellini
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 1 1/4 pounds)
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Heat the heavy cream, butter, nutmeg, 1 cup of the Parmesan and 1 teaspoon salt in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat, whisking occasionally, until the cheese and butter are melted, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the tortellini and simmer until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the chicken and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan.
  • Bake until the chicken is just cooked through, the sauce has thickened and the top starts to turn golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with the parsley.

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 large skinless, boneless chicken breasts
olive oil
1 pinch Italian seasoning, or to taste
1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 (12 ounce) package frozen cheese tortellini
¼ cup butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1 ¼ cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 pinches Italian seasoning, or to taste
freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Place chicken in a bowl and add oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, kosher salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
  • Cook chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the centers and the juices run clear, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the grill and allow to cool.
  • Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in tortellini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the tortellini float to the top and the filling is hot, about 3 minutes. Drain and set aside; keep warm.
  • Slice chicken breast into bite-size pieces.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, 2 to 3 minutes. Add cream and heat to room temperature, about 3 minutes more. Stir in Parmesan cheese and allow to melt, 2 to 3 minutes. Add Italian seasoning and pepper. Bring to a slow boil for about 1 minute before tossing in cooked tortellini and grilled chicken breast.
