- 4 boneless chicken breast halves without skin, cut into 1-2" thin strips
- 1 1/2 oz white wine (chardonnay or pinot grigio, good quality)
- 6 oz. Marsala wine (Taylor or Cribari, cheap stuff)
- 14 oz. of Chicken broth (Swanson etc)

- Add cream and bring to a boil while stirring, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Cook the Rigatoni al dente (not fully cooked, about 10-11 minutes) (do not rinse after draining water)
- Add the well-drained rigatoni to the pan.
- Finish with parmesan cheese, basil, parsley and 1 tbsp. butter. Stir well then serve with a nice helping of shaved parmesan cheese on top.
