Maggiano's Rigatonni D


As you can tell from the last couple of posts, the McCain family really likes Maggiano. Here is another knock off dish that my mom really likes. I didn't have any wine so I just used chicken broth instead. I would have to say I liked it much better without the wine, not so bitter, but feel free to do as you please. I promise to add a bunch of desserts to cook this holiday season in the next few posts, we like those as well!


Maggiano's Rigatonni D

Ingredients:
1 tsp salt
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon, Butter
3/4 cups Onions
1 1/2 fluid ounces, White wine
16 fluid ounces, Heavy cream
1/2 tablespoons, Basil
1/2 tablespoons, Parsley
2 Chicken breasts
14 fluid ounces, Chicken broth
2 tablespoons, Extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoons, Black pepper
8 ounces, Rigatoni pasta
8 ounces, Baby portobello mushrooms

Directions:

In a large skillet, heat oil, mushrooms, onion, garlic puree, salt, pepper, and brown lightly.
Lower heat, and add chicken, simmer for 10 minutes or until all of the chicken is cooked.
Add the white wine, marsala wine and the chicken broth. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, or about 15 minutes.
Add cream and bring to a boil while stirring, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
Boil the rigatoni al dente, about 10-12 minutes. Do not rinse.
Add the well-drained rigatoni to the skillet and finish with parmesan cheese, basil, parsley, and butter. Stir well, then serve hot, with a garnish of grated parmesan cheese.

Not Yo Mama's Banana Pudding (Re-post with a picture )

Does this dessert sound familiar to you?  I originally posted it last Summer, but didn't have a picture at the time.  I'm excited to be able to post this picture now so you can see how yummy it looks!  I first had this pudding at a BBQ last Summer.  One bite and I was hooked.  This fabulous pudding sits on top of a layer of bananas and is sandwiched between two delicious cookies. Does it get any better than that?  Banana pudding didn't used to be something I craved, but it definitely is now.  It is Heavenly!  Also, it's very easy to make.  So try it out sometime.  I bet you'll become a banana pudding fan too.

Royal Icing for Sugar Cookies

While I love my Scrumptious Sugar Cookie frosting , Royal Icing is the way to go for decorated cookies that harden enough to stack and package. It definitely takes more time and patience, but the end result is so satisfying! You can make such fun cookies without having to worry about the frosting coming off.  Royal Icing can get super hard, and while this is perfect for building Gingerbread Houses, it’s not so great when you want to actually eat the cookie. Not to worry though- adding in a little corn syrup helps the icing dry firm without being overly hard.  I also like to add in my favorite butter vanilla emulsion to make the icing extra yummy, cause at the end of the day it’s not enough to just look pretty!  There are a few different ways to make Royal Icing. My favorite method is using Meringue Powder. If you can’t find this or don’t want to buy it, you can use egg whites instead. Or, if you’re in a pinch you can make some with just powdered sugar and water. You can find some recip

Brown Butter Caramel Snickerdoodles

If you try one new cookie recipe this Fall, let it be this one!! I'm not kidding when I say that this is  one of the best cookies I've ever made.  They've already received rave reviews and comments such as, "Amazing!", and "Incredible!"  These are not your average snickerdoodle, not that I have anything against the traditional ones, they are made with browned butter and extra brown sugar for a rich caramel taste.  But wait, it also has a caramel center! And of course that classic chewy texture with a cinnamon/sugar coating.  I could eat these every single day. They are SO GOOD you guys!
