CHICKEN PENNE IN SMOKY CHILI CREAM SAUCE



Chicken Penne in Smoky Chili Cream Sauce image

To reduce calories, fat and sodium, you can opt for a light Alfredo sauce. For a spicier dish, increase the amount of chipotle chiles. Recipe is from Family Circle. I like to use "Recipe#111347" for the prepared alfredo sauce.

CHICKEN WITH FENNEL-CREAM SAUCE AND PENNE



Chicken with Fennel-Cream Sauce and Penne image

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Time 1h55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

One 4-pound whole chicken
2 bay leaves
2 carrots, quartered
2 ribs celery, quartered
1 lemon, sliced
1 large onion, quartered with root end attached
A few black peppercorns
A few stems fresh rosemary
A few stems fresh thyme
Salt
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon EVOO
1 medium bulb fennel, thinly sliced
1 head spring garlic or hard neck garlic, cloves peeled and thinly sliced
1 large sweet onion, thinly sliced
1/3 cup dry white wine
1 cup heavy cream
Salt and ground white pepper
1 pound penne pasta
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted
Parmigiano-Reggiano
Chopped fennel fronds
Chopped fresh tarragon

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Place the chicken in a pot and add the bay leaves, carrots, celery, lemons, onions, peppercorns, rosemary, thyme and some salt. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and poach the chicken for 1 hour. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, discard the skin and bones and separate the meat into bite-size pieces. Strain the stock and reserve.
  • For the pasta: Meanwhile, heat the butter and EVOO in a saucepan over medium-low to medium heat. Add the fennel, garlic and onions and cook very slowly until they are very sweet and soft, 20 to 25 minutes (do not let the onions brown). Deglaze the pan with the wine, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon.
  • Transfer the fennel mixture to a blender or food processor and add the heavy cream and 1 cup reserved poaching liquid (or chicken stock). Puree until smooth, then return the mixture to the pot, season with salt and white pepper and simmer over low heat to thicken the sauce a little, 10 to 15 minutes. Add one-third of the chicken to the sauce and reserve the remaining chicken for another use.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the pasta and season with salt. Cook the pasta until al dente. Scoop out a bit of the cooking liquid and add it to the sauce to thin it slightly. Drain the pasta, then add it to the sauce and toss to combine. Garnish the pasta with the pine nuts, cheese, fennel fronds and tarragon.
