1 pound penne pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
1½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/4" strips
½ stick butter
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 package sun-dried tomatoes (3 ounces), moist and sliced
In a large pot, cook the pasta according to package directions.
Drain and set aside in a colander.
In the same pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken and sauté for 5-7 minutes or until no pink remains.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, combine the butter and heavy cream over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to low and add the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
Stir until smooth, then add the sun-dried tomatoes and heat through.
Add the cheese/cream mixture to the chicken along with the pasta and heat over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, or until heated through and thoroughly combined, stirring constantly.
