The Skinny on Tuscan Chicken Simmer
June 23rd, 2011
Today’s review is on a recipe provided by Kraft Foods – Tuscan 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!

Um…just to be clear – a 1/4 CUP of water, etc.? Don’t want to mess this one up – sounds delicious!
Yes a 1/4 cup! Thanks for catching that one for me Laura :)
