My newest dinner dish.

Rob Oakley had this on his blog so I tried it and it was good. Here is the recipe.

O... My... Goodness!

This is the best Italian food I've ever made.

It's called Chicken Penne Gorgonzola.

MMM... MMM... MMM...

Here is the recipe

2 cups penne pasta, uncooked

2 tsp. olive oil

1-1/2 cups chopped plum tomatoes

2 cups cut-up grilled chicken (1-inch pieces)

1-1/2 cups chicken broth

1/2 cup diagonally cut asparagus spears (1-inch pieces)

1/4 cup whipping cream

4 tsp. minced fresh garlic

1 pkg. (4 oz.) ATHENOS Crumbled Gorgonzola Cheese

1 pkg. Mushrooms (suggestive: Portobello)

1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves

COOK pasta as directed on package.

MEANWHILE, heat oil in small skillet on medium heat. add Mushrooms and cook for 2 to 5 min or until lightly brown and crisp.

DRAIN and rinse pasta. Place in large skillet. Add tomatoes; cook on medium heat 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Add chicken, broth, asparagus, cream and garlic; mix well. Cook and stir 5 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened. Add mushrooms, cheese and basil; mix well. Cook 2 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally.

Although it's highly unhealthy it's an investment that promises high risk but massive reward!

Do yourself a favor and try it sometime I know you're going to like it!
