Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter unsalted
1 cup shallot or yellow onion
3 cloves garlic minced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
6 cups chicken broth use low-sodium chicken broth
8- ounce pasta fusilli, spirali, or rotini
¾ cup sun-dried tomatoes drained from olive oil
1 cup heavy cream
3 cups rotisserie chicken cut into small cubes
Salt & pepper to taste
2 teaspoons Italian seasonings
1 teaspoon red chili flakes
2 cups baby spinach
1 cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated

Instructions

Heat butter in a deep pan. Sauté shallots until translucent.
Sauté garlic until fragrant.
Add tomato paste and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Pour chicken broth, bring it to a boil.
Once broth begins to boil, add pasta and sun-dried tomatoes (drained and cut into small pieces).
Reduce heat to medium, cover pan with lid, and cook for 6-8 minutes or until pasta is very al dente.
TIP: Do not cook pasta fully, as pasta continues to cook further, you want it to be only half-cooked.
Pour heavy cream, mix well, and allow it to heat up. Do NOT bring it to a boil; cream may split if boiling or cooked at high heat.
Add rotisserie chicken cut into cubes, along with salt and pepper to taste, Italian seasoning, and red chili flakes.
Reduce the heat to low, add baby spinach. Mix and cook until spinach begins to wilt.
Turn off the heat. Add freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
Mix until the cheese is melted.
Serve hot with garlic bread.

Notes

Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor and taste.
Don’t overcook the pasta.
If the sauce seems thick, add a splash of chicken broth or water to adjust the consistency.
Reduce the heat before adding heavy cream to prevent the sauce from splitting.
Always buy a Parmesan cheese block and grate it yourself. Pre-grated cheese from the store usually has chemicals to keep it from lumping together, and it does melt well.
