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.

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Chocolate Covered Cream Balls

Several years ago, I sampled a Milk Chocolate Coconut at See's Candies.  It was love at first bite.  Ever since then I have made a mandatory stop every time I went into the mall to get one of these delicious chocolates.  I love them so much !  However, there are two things I didn't like about them.  1) I had to go to the mall to get them, and 2) they are SO expensive.  I think the last time I was there I paid about 75 cents for 1 chocolate. 

Healthier Chocolate Banana Muffins

 I know, I know.  We already have like 5 banana muffins posted on this blog.  I have put off posting this recipe because of that fact, but here's the thing.  While those muffins are all delicious and great in their own way, when I have ripe bananas you know I'm either making these muffins or banana bread.  More often, these muffins because they are perfect for a grab and go snack or breakfast.  My family LOVES these muffins! They have such a deep chocolate flavor and are so moist.  What my family doesn't think about, but I love, are that these muffins are healthier than your average muffin.  They are made with whole wheat flour, coconut oil, greek yogurt for extra protein, and have less sugar that most other muffins.  These are best warm (they can be reheated in the microwave for 10 seconds) and those bites with melted chocolate chips are the absolute best!
