I stayed in the house all day today other than to go out and clean up our patio. It is really hot outside so early morning chores that require energy I do early in the a.m. while it's still a bit cooler.
I cooked more this summer than I thought I would but baked less. It seems I am able to put together meals easier and use ingredients I have in my pantry or refrigerator rather than create a new cake or pie recipe.
There are only my hubby in our house so when I bake I usually freeze cakes, muffins and scones for use now and then freeze some for later. I also bake to take some to my mom when I visit. Summer is hard though because I do like to be out and about much more than winter and I try not to have to make a meal that requires too much oven or stove time.
Today I combined a few ingredients that I had and this meal really turned out great. Simple ingredients but a SUPER DELICIOUS Meal and it only required a large deep pan to do it. All in one meal!
First I started by saute' my boneless chicken breasts in olive oil with salt and pepper. When the chicken was cooked I set it aside and covered it.
I then added a bit more olive oil to the pan and fresh garlic that I minced. To that I added my butter and sauteed a little longer making sure not to burn the garlic! Low to medium heat recommended! Once that looked good I added my chicken broth and pasta. When pasta was a dente I added my heavy cream, cheese and parsley. It probably took 30 minutes in all to prepare and serve. YUM
Ingredients
2 large boneless chicken breasts sauteed on top of stove with a little olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper until all pink is gone. (set aside)
2 tsp. olive oil
2 T butter
3 cups chicken broth
1/2 pasta(I like Angel Hair)
1 cup grated Romano cheese
3/4 cup heavy cream
freshly snipped parsley(a sprig or two or 1 T dried)
Saute garlic in oil slowly as to not brown. Add butter and cook until melted
Add chicken broth
Let all come to a boil. Add pasta and cook until tender(do not overcook). Once pasta is tender, stir in cheese, cream and parsley. Add sliced chicken breast to pasta, stir and serve immediately.
