Cooking Steps
- Add 10 cups water and 1 tbsp salt to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, core then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Roughly chop parsley.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels. On a separate cutting board, cut into 1-inch pieces and season with salt and pepper
- Heat a large oven-proof pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken breast tenders. Sear until tenders are golden-brown and cooked through, 3-4 min per side.** Transfer to a plate.
- Return the pan to medium-high. Add 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter, then the peppers. Cook, stirring occasionally, until peppers are tender-crisp and chicken is cooked through, 3-4 min.**
- Meanwhile, add tortellini to the boiling water.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 2-3 min.
- Reserve 1/3 cup (2/3 cup) pasta water, then drain.
- Sprinkle Cream Sauce Spice Blend over peppers. Cook, stirring constantly, until chicken and peppers are coated, 30 sec.
- Add garlic, roasted pepper pesto, cream and half the parsley. Cook, stirring often, until sauce thickens slightly, 2-3 min.
- Return chicken to the pan, stir to combine, then remove from heat.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Add tortellini and reserved pasta water to the pan with chicken and sauce.
- Season with salt and pepper, then gently toss to combine. (NOTE: If you do not have an oven-proof pan, transfer mixture to a lightly-oiled, 8x8-inch [9x13-inch] baking dish.)
- Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over tortellini.
- Bake in the middle of the oven until cheese is golden-brown, 5-6 min.
- Allow tortellini to cool for 2-3 min before serving.
- Divide tortellini between plates.
- Sprinkle remaining parsley over top.
If you've opted to add chicken breast tenders, pat dry with paper towels. Cut into 1-inch pieces then season with salt and pepper. Heat a large oven-proof pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken tenders. Sear until tenders are golden-brown and cooked through, 3-4 min per side.** Transfer to a plate. Return the pan to medium-high before cooking the peppers.
Once the sauce has thickened, return chicken to the pan. Stir to combine, then remove from heat. Follow the rest of the recipe as written.
