Sun Dried Tomato Chicken Florentine Pasta - a 30 minute recipe with a sun dried tomato cream sauce, chicken, ziti, and Mozzarella cheese.

Sun Dried Tomato Chicken Florentine Pasta

ziti or other pasta

butter

chicken,

all purpose seasoning mix

cayenne

DeLallo sun dried tomatoes, drained

garlic

heavy cream

Mozzarella cheese

Parmesan cheese

spinach

chicken broth

Salt

Cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

Heat the butter in a skillet over medium high heat. Add the chicken and sprinkle with the seasoning and the cayenne. Sauté until the chicken is cooked through.

Drain the oil from the sun dried tomatoes. Chop into smaller pieces if you want. Add them to the pan with the garlic and sauté for a few minutes, until fragrant. You will probably still get some of the oil from the sun dried tomatoes &#8211; that&#8217;s okay.

Stir in the heavy cream and let the mixture come to a slow simmer. Add the mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and incorporated.

Stir in the cooked pasta and spinach – the spinach will start to cook down almost immediately. If needed, add in the chicken broth, a little at a time, to thin out the sauce. Season with salt to taste.

This majorly flopped for me too, Courtney. I don't think it's possible for this amount of liquid to thicken on its own. I almost turned this into a bechamel, but unfortunately decided to try the recipe as is. It turned out like pasta soup with globs of cheese. Sadly, a wasted amount of food.

Give boring weeknight dinners a boost with this easy recipe for chicken florentine pasta from Delish.com.

Chicken Florentine Pasta

penne

olive oil

lb. Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast

kosher salt

black pepper

oregano

c. white wine

garlic cloves,

c. chopped tomato

c. mozzarella

c. finely grated parmesan (plus more for serving)

c. baby spinach

parsley

red pepper flakes (optional)

In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook penne according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon oil. Season both sides of chicken with salt, pepper and oregano and cook until golden and no longer pink in the middle, 8 minutes per side. Transfer chicken a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.

Make sauce: Add the white wine to deglaze the pan. When the wine is simmering, use a wooden spoon to scrape all the golden chicken bits from the pan. (They have a lot of flavor that you'll want in your sauce!)

Add tomatoes and garlic and cook until the tomatoes soften slightly, about 2 minutes. Add cream and bring mixture back to a simmer. Add mozzarella and Parmesan and stir until the cheese melts. Season sauce with salt and pepper.

Turn off heat and add in the cooked penne, baby spinach, parsley and red pepper flakes (if using). Toss until the pasta is evenly coated in sauce and the spinach has wilted slightly. Serve immediately.

Loved this recipe, switched up tomatoes for mushrooms at the end and used angel hair pasta and I always use extra garlic,  it was fantastic

Was very well thought out I used jalapeño cheese instead of mozzarella

Delicious but used twice the amount of garlic and oregano.

Just made this tonight for my husband and I and it was soooo delicious!! Ingredients were on point would recommend to anyone

Perfectly creamy, just a hint of spice. Might add extra tomato and spinach- I always do extra garlic in everything. Whole family loved it! Served 6 with leftovers

I loved it. Super simple and majorly delish.  Been eating and loving the left overs. I did use chicken thighs and added a little crumbled bacon.
