Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

This Olive Garden copycat is on point. Breaded, pan-fried chicken covered with an insanely good asiago cream sauce makes this pasta plate a definite winner.
2 cups dry bowtie pasta
1 cup plain bread crumbs
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1/4 cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese
1 cup milk
6 chicken tenders, 1/2-inch thick
vegetable oil for frying
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons crushed garlic
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
3/4 cup half and half
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon minced fresh basil leaves
3/4 cup finely grated mild Asiago cheese
Garnish
4 broccoli florets (lightly steamed)
2 white mushrooms (sliced and lightly sauteed)
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
additional Parmesan cheese
Cook the pasta as directed on the package. Drain and set aside.
Combine the breadcrumbs, flour, and Parmesan in a shallow dish. Place the milk in another shallow dish.
Dip the chicken tenders first in the breadcrumb mixture then in the milk, letting any excess liquid drip off. Dip the chicken again in the breadcrumbs and set aside on a piece of waxed paper.
Heat a layer of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning as needed, until golden brown on all sides. Remove the chicken to a plate and keep warm.
Combine the butter and olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour until smooth. While stirring, add the garlic, water, and salt. Mix well then stir in the wine, half and half, and sour cream. Mix until smooth. Add the Asiago cheese and stir until melted.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the basil.
To serve, place 2 cups of the warm pasta in an individual serving bowl and top with the broccoli and mushrooms. Spoon 1/2 cup of the pasta sauce over the top. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes and additional Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve immediately.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

Fantastic recipe! Bit of work involved but it tastes incredible.
Delicious recipe! This is the very first pasta dish I made for my boyfriend and I last night. He loved it so much, he begged for me to make it again tonight. This recipe is definitely a keeper in my book. Thanks so much!

I made this tonight for my son and myself. It was so good. I didn't add the garnish though, but we both loved it. Thanks this great recipe.

Just finished dinner for my family of 5 and we are all so incredibly satisfied with this dish. I used chardonnay instead of chablis (because that's what I had) and it was still delicious. Not only was the taste amazing, the aroma in the house just felt so comforting.

WOW!! This was deilcious and crispy! I was very impressed and it was so easy to make. I added some McCormic herb-rub seasoning to the dry bread crub mix and it came out incredible. I'm sure it would be delicious even without the extra seasoning. I will be making this as one of my regular dishes.

This recipe tasted so good. It tasted like something from Olive Garden.

I made this dish for me and my boyfriend's 5 month anniversary and we absolutely LOVED it!! He even said himself that this one goes down in the books. Delicious!

This is good, but it didn't taste the same as the real thing. Olive Garden's version has less breading and a more subtle taste to the sauce.

This recipe is soooo good. I have made it a lot and my family loves it. It is my favorite.

I would reccomend not using crushed red pepper, instead, mix 1 tsp of grated or FINELY shredded parmesan and 1/4 tsp ground red pepper to garnish.
