Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 chicken breasts
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 lb dry pasta
2 cups half-and-half
4 ounces crumbly gorgonzola
8 ounces white button mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons shredded parmesan cheese
1/2 cup chopped tomatoes

Steps:

  • Pound chicken breasts until they are 1/2 inch thick season with salt and pepper. Sear chicken in a hot skillet with two tablespoons of oil over medium high heat. Cook on each side for about 4 to 5 minutes or until completely cooked. Remove chicken breasts from heat, and let rest for several minutes before slicing. You may need to add an additional tablespoon of butter or two to the sauce pan to saute the mushrooms. Saute the mushrooms on medium high heat until they are browned. While mushrooms are browning sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
  • Cook pasta according to instructions on the package. Johnny Carino's typically uses penne pasta, but I like to use a fettuccine pasta because I think it holds the sauce better. Prepare sauce by combining half and half and Gorgonzola in a saucepan heating through. The sauce should thicken slightly. Slice chicken into 1/4 inch slices. Add sauteed mushrooms to the sauce, and stir to combine well. Plate pasta by adding 1/4 of the pasta, 1/4 of the chicken slices. Drizzle with sauce, and top with chopped tomatoes and shredded Parmesan.
  • If you need to reheat this dish, I recommend leaving all of this unassembled and reassemble just before serving again. If you do not combine the pasta sauce and pasta together while this is refrigerated the sauce won't soak into the pasta.

Crock Pot Gorgonzola Chicken image

wonderful chicken dish that is oh so much more than a regular crock pot chicken affair. The chicken melts it is so tender and the Gorgonzola adds that extra special ingredient that turns this into a keeper for many-an-occasion, try it, it's to die for... I served with rice and a green salad and it was so nice it would easily perform as a dish for guests!

CHICKEN SCALOPPINE LIKE CARINO'S



Chicken Scaloppine Like Carino's image

I had to try to find a recipe for this. It is scrumptious! From Uncle Phaedrus' website. EDIT 2/18/2013 - Having made this several times, and taking one of the reviews in to account, I've decreased the salt to 1/2 teaspoon and changed the 1 tsp of garlic salt to 1/2 tsp garlic powder. In cooking, I've also made the change to A) dredge the chicken breasts in flour prior to sauteing, and B) remove them to a warmer while making the sauce, then spooning the sauce over the crispy scallops when plating. This is now EVEN BETTER! :)
