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!

Ratatouille

Tonight I made Ratatouille for dinner and it was amazing, so here is the recipe:

Ratatouille

1 lb. Eggplant sliced

salt and pepper to taste
McCormick's Italian seasoning (grinder) to taste
Adams reserve citrus rub
Olive Oil
1 Large Onion sliced
1 green bell pepper seeded and sliced
1lb. Zucchini sliced
4 Tomatoes peeled and sliced

Sprinkle the eggplant with salt and let "sweat" for an hour; rinse and dry.

Heat 2 tbs olive oil in frying pan and lightly fry the onion. Add an additional 2 tbs olive oil and add bell pepper and zucchini. Continue to fry gently.

Add eggplant and continue to cook. Then add tomatoes; add salt, and pepper.

Grind Italian seasoning and sprinkle with citrus rub.

Cook for about 40 minutes; covered.

And last but not least, enjoy!
