Chicken Scampi
- 1 lb butter
- 13 cup garlic clove
- 13 cup chicken base (Minors or Tone brand)
- 20 fluid ounces chablis (I used any dry white wine)
- 20 ounces water
- 40 ounces heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- fresh parsley (desired amount)
- 1 lb angel hair pasta
- Melt butter over low heat; do not let it get it brown.
- Add garlic puree and let sweat for 2 minutes add remaining ingredients and simmer for approximately 10 minutes.
- This is a 1x recipe, making around 1 gallon if memory serves me correctly.
- Amounts in parentheses are for approximately 2 quarts.
- For garlic, roast 2 to 3 heads of whole garlic.
- Slice off top until you see cloves and pour approximately 1 tablespoon olive oil over each head.
- Put in oven at 325 degrees F for around 1 hour or until they smell sweet.
- After they cool, squeeze cloves out of the papery stuff and coarsely chop.
- Cut up green, red and orange pepper into strips also red onion (1/4 by 1 inch strips).
- They measure, per serving, 1 1/2 ounces green pepper, 1/2 ounce red and orange pepper and 1/2 ounce red onion and 1 ounce roasted garlic.
- These are sauteed with the chicken.
- Marinate chicken in Marzetti's lite ranch dressing, adding 1 tablespoon garlic puree and fresh parsley.
- Use fresh chicken tenderloin strips.
- There are 5 of these per serving.
- You will cook the sauce while that simmers.
- Saute chicken and veggies and toss with the amount of sauce ( approximately 6-8 fluid ounces per serving) toss hot angel hair pasta inches.
- If you want less fat, evaporated milk also works in place of the cream.
- One of my managers always insisted if we had to use whipping cream, Old Bay Seasoning was needed, about 1 teaspoon, but I really never agreed.
- Mix pasta and sauce together.
- Place in dish and top with chicken strips and pepper garnish.
- ( I found it is easier to put pasta in individual serving dish and add sauce and garnish.
- Mix.
- Place 5 chicken strips on top.
