Silver Spring Country Club Sicilian Chicken
1 package (about 12 oz.) tri-colored cheese tortellini
24 oz. skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
Salt and pepper to taste
1 1/2 C. flour
2 T. olive oil
1 T. fresh chopped garlic
4 oz. fresh sliced mushrooms
2 medium Roma tomatoes, cut in wedges
1 large sliced green bell pepper
8 large fresh basil leaves, minced
16 oz. prepared marinara sauce
1/4 C. whipping cream
1 oz. freshly shredded
Parmesan cheese
8 oz. shredded mozzarella cheese
Prepare tortellini as directed on package. When done, drain and keep warm.
Slice boneless chicken breasts into 1/2-inch strips, then season with salt and
pepper to taste. Dredge in flour.
Add olive oil to a large preheated skillet. When oil is hot, add floured chicken
strips, being careful not to overlap the strips so they cook uniformly. Turn
once to brown on each side. If needed, cook chicken in batches, adding
additional oil if needed. After turning add garlic and cook 1 to 2 minutes or
until garlic just starts to brown. Add mushrooms, tomatoes and peppers; saute 3
to 5 minutes or until vegetables start to become tender but not overcooked. Add
basil and marinara sauce; simmer 1 to 2 minutes or until heated through. Stir in
cream until blended well. Simmer 1 to 2 minutes. Add Parmesan cheese to sauce
and blend until smooth.
Preheat oven to 350� F.
Divide tortellini into 4 equal oven-proof serving bowls, then top with the
chicken mixture. Add mozzarella cheese. Place in preheated oven just to melt the
cheese. Remove from oven when cheese is melted and serve with garlic bread.
Makes 4 servings.
