Linguine is topped with chicken in a wine sauce flavored with sun-dried tomatoes, vegetables, and fennel. Have all the ingredients ready to go, and you can have this delicious pasta dish on the table in less than 30 minutes.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 Tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
  • 2 boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 medium sweet onion, diced
  • 1 carrot, peeled, cut into matchstick-size pieces
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 1 teaspoon fennel seeds
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 pound linguine, cooked al dente
  • 1/4 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese

Preparation:

Place flour, sage, salt, and pepper in a large zip-top bag. Squish to combine. Add chicken cubes and toss to coat.

Place a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil to the hot pan and swirl to coat. Add onions and carrots. Saute for 2 minutes, stirring often. Stir in garlic and cook 1 additional minute.

Increase heat to medium-high. Add the chicken to the skillet cook until lightly browned. Carefully pour in the white wine. Cook for 2 minutes, then stir in the fennel seeds, sun-dried tomatoes, and chicken broth. Cook an additional 2 minutes.

Add chicken and vegetables to the cooked pasta along with the Parmesan cheese. Toss to coat. Serve hot.

Yield: 2 servings

I would modify it slightlyAugust 26, 2009By renunciate
"Excellent recipe, makes 2 VERY large portions. I sauteed with a blend of real butter and extra virgin olive oil. I removed the vegetables from the pan to brown the chicken and then returned them to the pan before adding the wine. If I make it again, I will leave out the fennel seeds. It does not meld well with the other flavors and it's not needed. The wine compliments the chicken beautifully and coating the chicken in the flour mixture created a nice sauce. Totally worth making this dish. Will be eating the leftovers at work."
