Our chefs have dreamed up the pasta equivalent of an Italian serenade, and it hits all the right notes. Al dente spaghetti is tossed with sautéed tomatoes, juicy seared chicken, and a garlicky, Italian herb-infused cream sauce. Of course, it wouldn’t be pasta night without plenty of Parmigiana; some gets stirred into the sauce, while the rest is sprinkled over top for a decadent garnish. Now that’s amore!

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Prep
1

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Halve tomatoes lengthwise. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Peel and mince or grate garlic.

Cook Chicken
2

• Open package of chicken and drain off any excess liquid; season all over with half the Italian Seasoning (you’ll use the rest later), salt, and pepper. • Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook, stirring, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. • Turn off heat; transfer chicken to a plate. Wipe out pan.

Cook Pasta
3

• Once water is boiling, add spaghetti to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 9-11 minutes (you’ll start the tomatoes after 5 minutes). • Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, then drain.

Cook Tomatoes
4

• Once spaghetti has cooked 5 minutes, melt 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4 servings) in pan used for chicken over medium-high heat. • Add tomatoes, scallion whites, and garlic; cook, until scallions and garlic are softened and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. TIP: If mixture begins to brown too quickly, reduce heat to medium.

Make Sauce
5

• Reduce heat under pan with tomato mixture to medium. Stir in cream sauce base, cream cheese, and remaining Italian Seasoning. Bring to a simmer; cook until melted and combined. Season with salt and pepper.

Finish & Serve
6

• Add chicken and drained spaghetti to pan with sauce; toss until coated and creamy, adding splashes of reserved pasta cooking water as needed. Stir in half the Parmesan and season with salt and pepper. • Divide chicken spaghetti between bowls. Sprinkle with scallion greens and remaining Parmesan. Serve.

Shellfish is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.

Since we used shrimp, I left out the Italian Seasoning and used red chili flakes instead. So yummy!

Personal preference, I didn't care for the tomatoes, also the sauce to pasta ratio could've been better. I don't like dry pasta.
