Tomato Basil Chicken

This easy recipe is done in 20 minutes and uses
 fresh garden ingredients that I usually have
in the house. So it’s just – defrost 2 chicken
breasts and the “what’s for dinner?” 

question is answered. I use my large black
cast iron skillet for this., which I love.

 It browns the chicken nicely and I can cut 
the chicken  right in the skillet when it’s done. 
Get out all the ingredients; it goes fast. 
1. Start your water boiling for the pasta. 
2. Prep/chop your ingredients.
3. Boil the fettucini, drain and 
reserved a little pasta water.

 4. While the pasta is cooking brown the chicken.

5.  Add the tomatoes, garlic, basil, and butter.

Season with more salt and pepper.

 6. The chicken is cooked in a matter of minutes
and the ingredients create a nice sauce.
Add a little reserved pasta water if
needed to increase the sauce.

 This is a Pinterest recipe. I’ve had it

pinned for a while and made it some time
ago but never posted it myself because I
thought it was everywhere. My daughter Kim
made it last week after work and loved it.
My granddaughter Kristina took it to
work the next day for a yummy lunch.

 7.  Cut the chicken into diagonal slices.
Serve over fettucini and enjoy!

Curried Chicken Salad Sandwich

curried chicken sandwich

If you didn’t already guess, I have been away for so long because we welcomed our baby girl into the world a few weeks ago! She has been keeping us very busy, and every free moment I have I spend trying to catch up on some sleep. Now I know why people would say they don’t even have time to brush their teeth when having a newborn! She has been a lot of fun, and being a new mom is one of the best feelings.

I had my first curried chicken salad sandwich at a tea house in San Francisco, and I loved it so much I wanted to make my own at home. I made this curried chicken salad sandwich as a quick lunch one day using my blender. You can make the filling ahead of time and keep it chilled for a few hours so the flavors have time to settle. I usually don’t like to use recipes with mayonnaise since it is so unhealthy and my husband doesn’t like the taste of it, but the flavor is definitely required for this recipe and it makes this curried chicken salad sandwich taste so good! He didn’t even realize there was mayo in it, probably because the other flavors like curry, cranberries and apple come through so strong.

Enjoy!
