Hi everyone, this is the Pasta I made to go along with my Parmesan Chicken for my second Valentine's Dinner video. I hope you like it.
Serves 3-4
Ingredients:
- 2 cups Farfalle or any other small pasta you like
- ½ cup diced Red Bell Peppers
- ½ cup diced Green Bell Peppers
- ¼ cup fresh Parsley finely chopped
- 2-3 Tablespoons Cream Cheese
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese (more to taste)
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 teaspoon Dry Oregano
- ¼ cup Heavy Cream
- Salt and Black pepper to taste
In a large saucepan on medium high heat, add 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, and cook the garlic for 1 minute or until it becomes translucent. Then add in 2-3 tablespoons of cream cheese, cook for another 1-2 minutes just to soften the cream cheese, then add ¼ cup heavy cream, season with 1 teaspoon dry oregano, ground black pepper and salt to taste. (Do not add too much salt, you will be adding some Parmesan Cheese!)
Add in t he bell peppers and cook for 2 more minutes, just to heat up the sauce, then add the Farfalle, fresh parsley and Parmesan Cheese, stir together, taste the flavor add more salt and pepper if needed, if you prefer you can season with Chicken flavor bouillon seasoning to taste. Give it one last stir, continue to cook on low heat for 2-3 more minutes just to heat everything through. Once everything is heated, you are ready to serve Enjoy!
