Grilled Chicken Florentine Pasta Recipes

Steps:

• Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken in the flour to coat lightly. Shake off any excess flour. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate and tent with foil to keep it warm.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and saute until the shallots are translucent, stirring to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet, about 1 minute. Add the wine. Increase the heat to medium-high and boil until the liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the cream and boil until the sauce reduces by half, stirring often, about 3 minutes. Stir in the parsley. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper. Add the chicken and any accumulated juices to the sauce, and turn the chicken to coat in the sauce.
• Meanwhile, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in another large skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and saute until heated through. Season the spinach, to taste, with salt and pepper. Arrange the spinach over a platter. Place the chicken atop the spinach. Pour the sauce over and serve.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add salt. Cook the pasta according to the package directions.
• Cut the Perfect Grilled Chicken into strips. Heat over medium-high heat in a skillet until warmed through.
• In a saucepan or skillet over low heat, warm the cream and butter. Season with salt and pepper.
• Place half of the Parmesan into a large serving bowl. Pour the warm butter/cream mixture over the top.
• Drain the pasta and immediately pour it into the bowl. Toss a couple of times, and then sprinkle in the other half of the Parmesan. Toss to combine, thinning with pasta water if necessary. Top with the chicken slices.
• Delicious!
• Mix together the olive oil, honey, mustard, salt, thyme, oregano and lemon juice in a large shallow container.
• Pound the chicken breasts to uniform thickness and add them to the marinade. Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 8 hours.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken in batches until golden brown on the first side, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown on the other side and cooked all the way through, another 4 to 5 minutes. Let the chicken cool.
• Transfer the chicken to freezer bags individually and in pairs, so it's easy to defrost the exact amount you need. Yield: 24 servings

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to package directions in lightly salted water. Drain and set aside.
• Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the butter and olive oil over high heat in a large skillet. Add the chicken chunks in a single layer and do not stir for a minute or two in order to allow the chicken to brown on the first side. Flip the chicken and brown on the other side. Cook until done, and then remove the chicken from the skillet.
• Turn the heat to medium. Add the garlic and quickly stir to avoid burning. After about 30 seconds, pour in the broth and wine, stirring to deglaze the skillet. Allow the liquid to bubble up, and then continue cooking until it's reduced by at least half (most of the surface of the liquid should be bubbling at this point).
• Turn off the heat. Add the spinach, tomatoes, chicken, cooked pasta and Parmesan shavings to the skillet. Toss to combine; the spinach will wilt as you toss everything.
• Add more Parmesan shavings and serve immediately! Serve with extra Parmesan shavings.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
• At the same time, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and chop when cool enough to handle. Drain pasta.
• While the bacon is cooking, heat olive oil in another skillet over medium heat. Add chicken, seasoned salt, and cayenne pepper, then stir in onion and garlic. Cook and stir for 5 minutes. Add sun-dried tomatoes; cook and stir until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add vegan cheese, coconut milk, chicken broth, and vegan sour cream. Mix well, cover, and cook until sauce begins to thicken, 3 to 5 minutes. Add spinach and bacon and cook, stirring continually, until sauce reaches desired consistency.
• Serve over penne.

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, season both sides of the chicken breasts with herbs, salt, and pepper. Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken breasts until golden, 3 minutes per side. Remove chicken from skillet, set aside, and keep warm.
• Add the onion, sun-dried tomatoes, and garlic to the skillet, scraping up the browned bits with a spatula. Pour in wine to deglaze and allow to reduce by half. Stir in Parmesan cheese and cream until sauce starts to thicken. If sauce seems too thick, add milk (or more cream) and stir to combine.
• Place spinach in the bottom of a colander. Carefully drain pasta into colander and 'wilt' spinach with the hot pasta water. Add pasta and spinach to the sauce in the skillet, and mix to combine. Add cooked chicken back to skillet. Cook until flavors are well combined and chicken is heated through, about 1 more minute.
• To serve, place pasta mixture in a bowl, top with a cooked chicken breast, and serve with more Parmesan cheese if desired.

Steps:

• Brush olive oil over chicken breasts. Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat.
• Place chicken on grill rack; cover and grill over medium heat 4 minutes, turning once until there are grill marks on both sides of chicken.
• In large skillet, place partially cooked chicken. Add tomatoes, spinach and oregano leaves; cover and cook over low heat about 10 to 12 minutes, or until juice of chicken is no longer pink when center of thicket pieces are cut and spinach is wilted.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Place chicken breasts on serving platter; spoon tomato mixture with spinach over chicken. Sprinkle cheese over top (the carry-over heat will melt it nicely). Sprinkle fresh basil over top for garnish.

Steps:

• Put a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 or 3 minutes.
• Add 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet and swirl it around
• Put about .25 cup of flour on a plate. When the butter foam subsides, dredge the chicken in flour, shaking to remove the excess.
• Add the breasts to the skillet and cook so there is a constant sizzle but no burning.
• Cook, turning once, until the chicken is browned on both sides and nearly cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
• Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
• Add 1 pound spinach to the skillet and cook, undisturbed, until the liquid from the spinach evaporates completely.
• With the heat still on medium-high, add .5 cup of white wine to the skillet and let it bubble, stirring, until it is reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
• Wait 30 seconds, then stir in .5 cup heavy or sour cream (yogurt is fine if you keep the heat low). Turn heat to low, stirring, until slightly thickened.
• Return the chicken to the skillet, turn in the sauce and serve.
