CHICKEN PRIMAVERA



Chicken Primavera image

This creamy Chicken Primavera recipe is a fresh combination of vegetables, pasta, chicken and herbs in a light garlic Parmesan sauce!

Provided by Blair Lonergan

Categories     Dinner

Time 37m

Number Of Ingredients 17

½ lb. dry penne pasta
1 cup broccoli florets
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 boneless, skinless chicken breast (about 8 ounces)
Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons salted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 asparagus spears, chopped
½ cup diced zucchini
¼ cup diced sweet bell pepper
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
¼ cup chicken broth, or more as needed
½ cup heavy cream, at room temperature
½ cup finely-grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup frozen peas, thawed
¼ cup minced fresh chives (or sub with thinly-sliced green onions)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves (or sub with 1 teaspoon dried basil)

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water for 1 minute less than al dente, according to package instructions (that was about 9 minutes total for my box of penne). During the final 3 minutes of cooking time, add the broccoli florets to the boiling water with the pasta. Drain.
  • Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. Cook the chicken in the oil until browned on both sides and juices run clear, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove the chicken to a cutting board, let rest for 5 minutes, and then slice into thin strips.
  • In the same pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in asparagus, increase the heat to medium-high, and cook for 1 minute. Add the zucchini and bell pepper, cook for 1 minute. Stir in the tomatoes and cook for 1 more minute.
  • Add the chicken broth, increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to low so that the liquid is at a gentle simmer. Stir in the cream and Parmesan until smooth.
  • Add the cooked pasta, broccoli, peas, chives and basil to the sauce. Let it bubble and thicken slightly, stirring frequently, until all of the ingredients are warmed through, about 2 more minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if necessary. Stir in the chicken and serve immediately.

CHICKEN PASTA PRIMAVERA FOR WEEKDAYS



Chicken Pasta Primavera for Weekdays image

A quick non-creamy weeknight primavera using cooked chicken. Found in California Sizzles. Notes: A 14.5 ounce can of peeled Roma tomatoes equals 4-5 fresh tomatoes; drain before adding. The whole canned tomatoes tend to be higher quality than those used for cut up varieties, but Progresso, Muir Glen, and Contadina are highly rated brands. If using frozen broccoli (if you don't live in California!), please thaw prior to adding. A one-pound bunch of fresh broccoli will yield 4 cups of florets. Made 6/16/12: used florets from 1 crown of broccoli, Fire-roasted tomatoes (drained), pulled meat from 1/2 rotisserie chicken. This was mild - family friendly. We will make again using Rotel, or serve with red pepper flakes or Mrs. Dash Fiesta Lime seasoning. Used tri-colored garden rotini, but would look better on angel hair. My fresh broccoli only needed 7 minutes before adding chicken. Because I used rotisserie chicken and canned tomatoes, I did not add additional salt.
