Chicken in a Tangy Italian Cream Sauce and Pasta

This turned out better than I thought by just using what I had on hand, and super easy! Not many ingredients, but we thought it was really tasty. The sun-dried tomatoes and wine give it a great twang! I made it for the two of us, but it's easy to just double or adjust the amounts for your family. Read more See less
Ingredients
- chicken breasts (2 boneless skinless) shopping list
- Wondra Flour (not necessary) shopping list
- sun-dried tomatoes packed in olive oil (approx. 1/3 cup) chopped shopping list
- McCormick's Italian pepper and onion seasoning (just discovered, really good) shopping list
- Dried thyme (about 1/2 tsp. or less) shopping list
- Dried oregano ( ditto ) shopping list
- dry white wine or white cooking wine (approx. 1/2 cup) shopping list
- 1 % milk or chicken broth - just pour in slowly until the consistency you like (I used milk cuz of hubby's recent gout bout, but next time will use the broth, it's good either way) shopping list
- 4 oz. cream cheese (I use Philly light) shopping list
- penne pasta - approx 5-6 oz. (or your choice) shopping list
How to make it
- Chop up sun-dried tomatoes along with some of the oil

- Add tomatoes and chicken to non-stick fry pan over medium heat
- Add salt to taste
- Cook till chicken is just done
- Meanwhile get water boiling for pasta
- When chicken is no longer pink, sprinkle with some Wondra or flour (I do this to make the sauce a little thicker, it's up to you)

- Incorporate cream cheese by pressing back of spoon on it in a circular motion till melted in
