Provided by Faux Chef Lael

Categories     Chicken

Time 35m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb penne pasta
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning (to taste)
2 cups red grapes (seedless, sliced in half)
4 green onions (thinly sliced)
1/3 cup pecans (coarsely chopped)
1/2 cup gorgonzola (crumbled)
1 cup mayonnaise (for best results, use a quality brand like Best Foods)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar (you may use apple cider vinegar, but rice vinegar is better here)
3 tablespoons white sugar (to taste)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (regular table salt will be TOO SALTY)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta according to the package directions, NOT al dente. You don't want it to be too gummy or too mushy. Drain in a colander and run COLD water over until it's completely cold. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Sprinkle the chicken breasts with lemon pepper. "Grill" the chicken breasts by whatever method you prefer. You may use a panini type grill, a barbecue grill, or simply bake in the oven. Your cooking times will vary based on your method, but just make sure the breasts are fully cooked by reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees, or when the juices run clear. Allow the chicken pieces to cool until you can handle them. Slice the chicken thinly, then cut slices in half so they are bite-sized. Spread out to cool completely while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
  • Pour the dressing ingredients (mayo, oil, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper) into the bowl and whisk until incorporated.
  • After the chicken and pasta are completely cooled, add all the remaining ingredients to the bowl and stir gently. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • TIPS: If the salad is too stiff after prolonged refrigeration, you can make it creamy again by stirring in a tiny bit of olive oil, milk or warm water. Gorgonzola cheese is similar to bleu cheese, but slightly milder. It is an acquired taste for some people, so feel free to use more or less to taste. I use MORE! For best results, don't substitute or omit ingredients. I usually try doing things to lower fat or calories, but in this case, the results will NOT be the same.

PENNE POLLO ALLA GORGONZOLA

Provided by The Italian Cook

Categories     Penne

Time 45m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups penne pasta, cooked al dente (enough to absorb sauce but with a little left over)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon chopped red onion
1 tablespoon chopped roma tomato
salt and pepper
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup half-and-half
2 1/2 tablespoons crumbled gorgonzola
1 tablespoon parmesan cheese
1 chicken breast, cut into 16 pieces

Steps:

  • Using a medium saute pan, add oil, mushrooms, onions, garlic, and tomatoes, and a pinch of salt and pepper, and then saute until mushrooms are soft.
  • Add chicken about halfway through the saute (you can also use grilled chicken and add it at the end if you want).
  • Now add cream and half and half mixture with the gorgonzola cheese and Parmesan; put back on a medium flame; reduce until bubbles thicken, but don't overcook! The sauce will become clumpy on noodles once served, if overcooked.
  • Taste the sauce and add salt and pepper for taste (you most likely will have to do this).
  • If you precooked the noodles warm them up in a hot water bath before adding to the sauce.
  • Add a little water to the sauce with the noodles because the noodles really absorb the sauce.
  • Note: This recipe should make 1 serving and you usually add about a handful and a half of cooked penne to the sauce. I hope you enjoy this recipe, it is so delicious, and I hope my amounts are correct!

PENNE WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES AND CHICKEN



Penne With Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Chicken image

Provided by Marian Burros

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 main-dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, not packed in oil
6 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
3 tablespoons chopped shallot (1 large shallot)
1 1/4 cups chopped fresh portobello mushrooms (2 smallish mushrooms)
1/2 cup fresh peas or thawed frozen peas
8 ounces dried penne
Light vegetable-oil cooking spray
5 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
1 tablespoon flour
12 ounces evaporated skim milk
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 teaspoon salt, optional
5 medium black olives, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Put the sun-dried tomatoes in a bowl, add 1/2-cup boiling water and set the bowl aside for the tomatoes to reconstitute. Fill a large pot with water, and bring it to a boil.
  • Combine the chicken and wine in a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle the Italian seasoning on top. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the meat is no longer pink and the juices run clear. Remove and shred the chicken, reserving the cooking juices.
  • Drain the sun-dried tomatoes, and slice them thin.
  • Pour the reserved cooking juices from the chicken into a saute pan. Add the shallot, mushrooms, peas and tomatoes. Saute over low heat for a few minutes, until the liquid has been absorbed and the vegetables are wilted. Remove the pan from the heat and cover it to keep the vegetables warm.
  • Add the penne to the boiling water in the large pot, and cook over high heat to desired doneness, 8 to 12 minutes.
  • While the pasta is cooking, make the sauce. Preheat a small heavy saucepan for about 1 minute over medium heat; then spray it twice with the vegetable oil. Toss in the garlic and flour; then, whisk in the evaporated milk. Add the nutmeg and red pepper flakes. Whisking constantly, bring the mixture to a boil, and continue cooking for about 5 minutes, until thickened. Reduce the heat to the lowest setting, and stir in basil.
  • Drain the cooked pasta, and transfer to a warm serving bowl. Add the chicken, vegetables and sauce. Season with salt, if desired, and toss. Garnish with olive slices.
