Chicken Bolognese With Penne Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until the chicken has browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the carrots and onions and cook until the vegetables are tender, 7 to 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic, chili powder, Italian seasoning and bay leaf and let the spices toast, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and let that toast and start to get brown on the bottom of the pot, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir in the white wine and simmer until the wine has been absorbed into the meat. Add the evaporated milk and cook, stirring constantly, until it has cooked down. Add the tomato sauce, salt, pepper and 1/2 cup water. Cover and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is nice and thick and hearty, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the rigatoni to al dente according to the package instructions. Drain the pasta, reserving some of the pasta water. Remove the bay leaf from the sauce and toss the pasta with the sauce, adding the reserved water to loosen the sauce if necessary. Garnish with the parsley and serve with grated Parmesan.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken, onion and garlic; saute until chicken is mostly cooked through, about 10 minutes. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, mushrooms and Italian seasoning. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Reduce heat and stir in the sugar. Simmer for at least 15 minutes. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add rotini pasta and cook until al dente. Drain and serve topped with the chicken mixture and grated Parmesan cheese.
