  • Cook 22 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 large chicken breasts
  • 1 pound penne pasta
  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 pint heavy cream
  • 4 ounces gorgonzola (crumbled)
  • ¼ cup shredded parmesan
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Season chicken with salt and pepper and grill (I used my indoor grill pan). Slice into thin strips.
  2. Bring water to a boil and add pasta. While pasta is cooking, make the sauce. Melt butter in saucepan, heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Simmer 1 minute being careful not to let the butter burn! Slowly add cream and heat to a low boil to reduce, stirring constantly. Boil for 3 minutes.
  3. Reduce heat, add gorgonzola, parmesan, and nutmeg. Stir until melted. Serve sauce over noodles and top with chicken.

Give it a minute off the heat, then serve it while it is still hot.
