Asiago Chicken Pasta Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, chives, sour cream, parsley, tarragon, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
• Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat until hot; brush with the oil. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken, turning once, until well-marked and just cooked through, about 7 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Meanwhile, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool; add to the bowl with the dressing.
• Add the chicken, arugula, Asiago and onion to the bowl and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. The pasta salad is best if served right away.

Steps:

• Cook and drain pasta as directed on package. Meanwhile, pour boiling water over tomatoes; let stand 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, spray 12-inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Cook chicken, garlic pepper and salt in skillet 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until chicken is brown. Stir in tomato mixture and vegetables. Cover and cook about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink in center and vegetables are crisp-tender.
• Stir in pasta; cook and stir until thoroughly heated. Stir in parsley. Sprinkle with cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325ºF. Coat an 8 x 8 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a shallow bowl, beat egg with just enough water to thin it a little. Set aside.
• Place bread crumbs in another shallow bowl, and stir in dried basil. Set aside.
• Place 1 chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a mallet until about 1/4 inch thick, being careful not to pound holes in chicken; repeat with 2nd breast.
• Remove plastic wrap and place 1 slice of ham on each breast.
• Place one piece of cheese on the narrow end of each breast. Roll breast up jelly-roll fashion, and secure ends with toothpicks.
• Dip breast in egg mixture and coat all sides. Roll in bread crumbs until well coated. Repeat with 2nd breast.
• Place in baking dish and LIGHTLY spray with cooking spray (or an oil mister). This will help coating brown.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
• Remove toothpicks and place on plates. Top with some heated pasta sauce and some shredded cheese to garnish; serve.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente. Drain, and set aside.
