Tonight’s dinner was this cozy chicken and broccoli pasta tossed in a silky tomato cream sauce with garlic, onion, white wine, butter, and plenty of Locatelli Romano cheese 💛

This turned into one of those throw-together dinners that came out even better than expected. The cavatappi held onto every bit of that creamy sauce and the broccoli added the perfect balance.

Phil said it was better than a restaurant 😊

RECIPE:

• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, diced
• 1 large Vidalia onion, diced
• 4 garlic cloves, chopped
• 2 carrots, peeled and cut into matchstick pieces
• 1 bag broccoli florets, partially steamed
• Olive oil
• Salt and pepper
• Dried basil
• Crushed red pepper
• Parsley
• 1 can tomato paste
• About 1/2 bottle white wine
• About 4 tablespoons sugar
• About 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1/4–1/2 cup light cream
• Cavatappi pasta
• Locatelli Romano cheese

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Sauté the onion and garlic in olive oil for about 5–8 minutes until softened and lightly caramelized. Add the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Add the carrots and cook another minute or two.

Once the chicken starts cooking through, add basil, crushed red pepper, parsley, tomato paste, broccoli, sugar, and white wine. Stir well and let simmer until the sauce thickens slightly.

Add the butter and stir until melted. Pour in the cream and cook a few more minutes until silky and creamy.

Cook the pasta until al dente, drain, and toss with the sauce.

Finish with plenty of Locatelli Romano cheese.

Creamy rice pudding topped with caramelized bananas…comfort food with a little extra something 🍌💛

The bananas are cooked in butter and sugar until golden and caramelized, then spooned over warm creamy rice pudding for the perfect sweet finish.

Full recipe below ⬇️

🍌 Caramelized Bananas

• 4 bananas, sliced on the diagonal
• 2 tbsp butter
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• Pinch of salt
• A few squeezes of fresh lemon juice

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bananas in a single layer and sprinkle with brown sugar, salt, and lemon juice. Sauté several minutes until caramelized, then flip and caramelize the other side.
