Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 teaspoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon white wine
⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon salt
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cubed
2 cups dried penne pasta
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil, divided
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 cup white wine
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
½ cup torn fresh basil
2 cups torn arugula leaves
⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
freshly grated Romano cheese

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together 2 teaspoons of lemon juice, 2 teaspoons of sherry vinegar, 1 tablespoon of white wine, 1/8 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, and 1/8 teaspoon of salt. Add the chicken cubes, and stir to coat. Set aside to marinate for at least 20 minutes.
  • Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the pasta, and cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Drain, and set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a Dutch oven or deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan, and set aside.
  • Pour in the remaining olive oil, and add the garlic. Cook and stir until fragrant. Mix in 1 cup of white wine, 1 tablespoon of sherry vinegar, tomatoes, and cannellini beans. Stir in the chicken, and reduce heat to low. Cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Stir in the pasta, basil, arugula, and red pepper flakes. Cover, and turn off heat. Let sit until the arugula and basil have wilted, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle into serving bowls, and top with Romano cheese to serve.
