Creamy Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken Pasta

Creamy Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken Pasta Ingredients

• 1 (8 ounce) jar oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes

• 1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs, cubed

• 4 teaspoons Italian seasoning

• 1 smoked paprika

• red pepper flakes

• kosher salt and black pepper

• 3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

• 2 tablespoons salted butter

• 1 medium shallot, chopped

• 2 cloves garlic, chopped

• 1 pound short cut pasta

• 1 cup heavy cream

• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

• 2 cups fresh baby spinach

• juice of 1 lemon

Instructions

1. Drain 3 tablespoons of oil from the sun-dried tomato jar into a large pot or skillet with sides. Chop the sun-dried tomatoes and set aside.

2. Set the pot over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, 3 teaspoons Italian seasoning, the paprika, and a pinch each of red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Cook until golden brown, 5 minutes. Add 1/4 cup parmesan, cook another minute, then remove the chicken from the pot.

3. To the same pot, add the butter, shallot, garlic, and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning. Cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add 3 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil, add the pasta, and cook, stirring often, until the pasta is al dente, 8 minutes. Stir in the cream, mustard, parmesan, spinach, and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Slide the chicken and any juices left on the plate.

4. Serve the pasta topped with lemon juice and fresh parmesan. #DoritosTriangleTryout #k18results #fyp #foodtiktok #cooking #cook #pasta #homecooking #homecook #foodie
