Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken Pasta

Recipe by Stephanie Moyle Barber from allrecipes.com

Dinner 45 Mins.

Ingredients

6

6 servings

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (12 ounce) jar roasted red peppers, drained and chopped
  • 1 (9 ounce) jar sun-dried tomato pesto
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 pound dry penne pasta

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chicken breast; cook and stir until browned, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant. Add roasted peppers, sun-dried tomato pesto, cream, basil, and cayenne pepper; stir until well mixed. Simmer over low heat until chicken is cooked through and sauce has thickened, about 20 to 30 minutes.
  • While sauce is simmering, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir in penne and return to a boil; cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain well.
  • Spoon sauce over cooked penne.
