CHICKEN AND SPAGHETTI SQUASH ALFREDO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Rub 1 tablespoon olive oil on the flesh of the squash. Place squash, cut-sides down, on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until squash is tender when pierced with a fork, 45 to 60 minutes.
• When squash has about 10 minutes left, melt 1/4 cup butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add cream cheese, a few cubes at a time, and whisk as they melt. Add heavy cream; cook and whisk until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly add Parmesan cheese, whisking until fully melted before adding more. Continue cooking until sauce thickens, 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• At the same time, combine remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add cooked chicken and toss for 2 to 3 minutes to brown it up a little.
• Remove squash from the oven and use a fork to shred the flesh into a bowl. Ladle some sauce into the squash and mix to combine. Add some chicken and the remaining sauce, then mix again. Top with remaining chicken.

SUMMER SQUASH CHICKEN ALFREDO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
• Place the chicken in the prepared baking dish, and coat with the garlic. Bake 25 minutes, or until chicken juices run clear. Cool and chop.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Place the rigatoni in the pot, cook 10 minutes, until al dente, and drain.
• Place bacon in a skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble, and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat, and saute the zucchini and yellow squash until tender and lightly browned.
• In a small bowl, mix the Alfredo sauce and milk. Serve chicken over the cooked pasta. Pour Alfredo sauce over the chicken. Top with zucchini and squash. Sprinkle with sun-dried tomatoes, bacon, Parmesan cheese, and almonds.

SUN-DRIED TOMATO CHICKEN ALFREDO

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.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and desired crispness is reached, 6 to 10 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels.
• Add chopped chicken thighs, garlic salt, and cantanzaro herbs to skillet and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 6 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken to a plate.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat until a pinch of flour sprinkled into the oil just begins to bubble. Whisk in flour to form a thick paste the consistency of cake frosting. Slowly add in milk, stirring constantly. Allow mixture to thicken, while stirring. Mix in fontina cheese, Parmesan, provolone, and sun-dried tomatoes. Stir to combine. Add drained pasta to sauce and mix well. Stir in cooked chicken and bacon.

CHICKEN, SQUASH, & SUN-DRIED TOMATO ALFREDO PASTA

Steps:

• First, broil the chicken (4-6 minutes each side) depending on your oven. When it is white all the way through, take it out of the oven and let it cool.
• Boil water, and once water is boiling, add box of penne pasta and cook until al dente.
• While the water is heating up/pasta is cooking -- Dice the squash and the onion. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large pan and add the squash and onion. Right before they are finished, add garlic. Sautee until both are softened.
• When the chicken is cooled down, tear into strips and add to the squash and onion mixture. Add the can of Rotel tomatoes & the jar of sun dried tomato alfredo sauce. Stir and add salt and pepper to taste.
• Drain the penne pasta and toss it with the other 2 tablespoons of butter, add to the sauce, mix the sauce into the pasta well, and then grate fresh cheese on top.
• I like to serve with Pillsbury crescent rolls -- Enjoy!
