How to Make Creamy Tuscan Chicken Tortellini
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then sear for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Pour in 1 cup of heavy cream while stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Gradually add 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until it melts and creates a smooth, creamy sauce.
- Stir in 2 cups of baby spinach and 1 cup of chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Let this simmer for about 3 minutes, allowing the spinach to wilt and the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Gently add 12 oz of cooked tortellini into the creamy mixture, ensuring all the pasta is well coated in that luscious sauce.
- Slice the chicken into strips or cubes and place on top of the tortellini. Drizzle any remaining sauce over the top before serving.
