Time 1h5m

Yield 10 2 Cup servings, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 3/4 lbs boneless skinless chicken
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
cooking spray
20 ounces uncooked farfalle pasta
1 tablespoon butter
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 1/4 cups milk (divided into a 1/2 c portion and a 1 3/4 c portion)
3 tablespoons flour
1 (3 1/2 ounce) jar pesto sauce (or 1/3 cup of your own homemade pesto)
2 cups parmesan cheese, freshly shredded
4 cups grape tomatoes, halved lengthwise
1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped

Steps:

  • Set the grill to medium high heat (or use a ribbed grill pan on the stovetop). Spray with cooking spray.
  • Season the chicken with the salt and pepper. Place on the grill and cook for approximately 10 minutes - until the juices run clear. Remove from grill and let stand for five minutes. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces; keep warm.
  • Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain in a colander placed over a bowl. Save 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid. Place the drained pasta into a large serving bowl.
  • Heat butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook one minute, stirring occasionally.
  • Combine the 1/2 cup milk and flour in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth. Add this mixture to the garlic and butter whisking constantly. Stir in the pesto. Slowly add the remaining milk - whisking constantly. Cook, stirring frequently, for 8 minutes or until the sauce thickens.
  • Add the reserved cooking liquid and one cup of the shredded cheese, stir until the cheese melts. Add salt and pepper if desired.
  • Add the chicken and the sauce to the bowl of pasta, tossing well to coat. Add the tomatoes and basil and gently toss again. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and serve immediately.
