The Skinny on Tuscan Chicken Simmer

June 23rd, 2011

Today’s review is on a recipe provided by Kraft FoodsTuscan Chicken Simmer – with a few edits of my own.

But before I get started, this is NOT a paid endorsement, just a recipe I came across that sounded yummy!

Ingredients:

  • 2 Boneless Chicken Breasts, thinly sliced
  • 4 oz. Cream Cheese, cubed
  • 1/4 cup Water
  • 1/4 cup Pesto
  • 1 can Diced Tomatoes
  • 1/2 bag of Italian Blend Vegetables
  • 1/2 cup Shredded Italian Blend Cheese
  • Fresh Parsley

Directions:

Heat large nonstick skillet sprayed with cooking spray on medium-high heat. Add chicken; cover. Cook 5 to 7 min. on each side or until done (165ºF). Remove chicken from skillet; cover to keep warm.

Add cream cheese, water, pesto, tomatoes, and veggie mix to skillet. Cook, uncovered, on medium heat 2 min. or until heated through, stirring occasionally.

Return chicken to skillet. Cook and stir 1 min. or until chicken is coated and heated through. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and garnish with parsley.

And voila!

I’m giving this recipe a rating of 4 stars!

I think next time I’m going to cook some asparagus up with it!
