Creamy Cheesy Chicken And Farfalle Recipes

Steps:

• With a little oil, sauté the onions over medium low heat in a deep skillet. My preference when cooking onions is to let them get a lot of color.
• Next, add the bacon, garlic, and Italian dressing. The dressing makes a nice base for the sauce, but I like to let it simmer for a few minutes like this so the majority of the vinegar taste cooks off.
• Add the half and half, you can use fat-free if you would like. It's important at this step to be sure that your skillet isn't too hot, as you don't want the dairy to curdle or separate.
• Now it's time to add your cooked chicken, mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, and parsley. I added my chicken while it was still mostly frozen, and it still turned out lovely.
• Now is the time when you need to decide your preference in sauce. Do you like it a little thicker? Throw in some more cheese. Is it way too gloppy and thick? Add in a splash or two of milk until you get the consistency you like. Once you're happy, cover your sauce and keep over medium-low heat while you prepare your farfalle. Stir occasionally.
• When pasta is done and drained, toss it all together and enjoy.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a casserole dish or 9x13-inch pan.
• Slice or cube chicken and season lightly with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook farfalle at a boil, stirring occasionally, for 6 minutes. Drain, cover, and set aside.
• Heat butter and olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add wine and cook, 1 to 2 minutes. Add garlic and lemon juice and cook, 1 to 2 minutes. Don't allow garlic to brown.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and add cream cheese, stirring until melted and blended. Add flour to sour cream, mix well, and stir into the pan. Add chicken stock, parsley, thyme, red pepper, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer until slightly thickened. Add more stock if sauce is too thick. Remove from heat.
• Add 1/2 cup Parmesan and lemon zest, stir well. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add partially cooked farfalle and blend well. Pour into the prepared baking or casserole pan and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese.
• Bake, covered, in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until lightly browned, 7 to 10 minutes more.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Spray 2- to 3-quart casserole with cooking spray.
