Light and Creamy Chicken Tomato Linguine

This recipe uses thickened skim milk as the "creamy" base. The only fat is butter and parmesan cheese used as topping. I use a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store for the meat. I prepare everything before cooking. It makes it much easier.

SERVES 6 , 6 servings (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Add bouillon and all seasonings (except parsley) to milk. Let sit. You don't need to add salt.
  2. 2
    In large saucepan, saute onion in butter until tender. Add crushed garlic and saute 30 seconds.
  3. 3
    Add flour. Cook for 30 seconds.
  4. 4
    Whisk in milk mixture. Add tomatoes. Simmer until thickened. Make sure it bubbles so that flour cooks.
  5. 5
    Add chicken.
  6. 6
    Simmer a few more minutes, stirring frequently.
  7. 7
    Add parsley. Remove from heat and let sit for a few minutes.
  8. 8
    Serve over linguine topped with parmesan cheese.

Great easy recipe! It tasted great. I used 2% milk for a creamier sauce and added hot sausage and some bacon. My friend had 3rd's. I will make this again!
