Roxy Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Here's a recipe courtesy Olive Garden: Tuscan Garlic Chicken 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1 1/2 cups flour, plus 1 Tbsp. 1 Tbsp. salt 2 tsp. black pepper 2 tsp. Italian herb seasoning 5 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil 1 lb. fettucine 1 Tbsp. garlic, chopped 1 red pepper, julienned cut 1/2 cup dry white wine 1/2 lb. whole leaf spinach, stemmed 12 ounces heavy cream 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning in a shallow dish. Dredge chicken in the mixture, shaking off any excess. In a large, nonstick, ovenproof skillet, add 3 Tbsp. olive oil, enough to coat, and sauté the chicken in batches over medium high heat for about two to three minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp. Add additional oil for each batch as necessary. When finished, return chicken to skillet and transfer skillet to a preheated oven at 350 degrees. Cook for approximately 10-15 minutes or until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside until needed. While the pasta is cooking, heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a saucepan. Add the garlic and red pepper and cook for approximately 1 minute. Slowly add remaining 1 Tbsp. flour and stir to combine. Next, add the wine and bring to a boil for about 1 minute. add the spinach and the cream and bring to a boil. The sauce is done cooking when the spinach becomes wilted. Complete by stirring in the Parmesan cheese. Partly coat the pasta with the sauce, transfer to a large bowl (or individual dishes) and then top with the chicken, the remaining sauce and the Parmesan cheese.
