CHICKEN FLORENTINE PASTA RECIPE | CHEFDEHOME.COM
Chicken Florentine Pasta, an easy creamy chicken and pasta dinner recipe with bowtie pasta coated in lightened-up fresh spinach Florentine Sauce and black pepper chicken. Needs only 15 minutes of prep. Perfect for weeknights.
My version of Florentine Sauce is special. It creamy yet lite with delicious flavor of star-ingredient - spinach. Just three things make all the difference:
- To lighten-up the sauce, I replace heavy cream with half-and-half. (half the cream and half the milk).
- Add herbs, sun-dried tomatoes, and chicken stock to add more depth of flavor.
- Use fresh spinach instead of frozen to control the amount of liquid in the sauce.
The resulting sauce is perfect to coat pasta and has amazing flavor of spinach. Every bite just melts in mouth.
I highly recommend trying the recipe. Needs only 15 minutes of prep. Cut the dinner time in half by making ahead sauce up-to a week in advance. Cook chicken in advance or use rotisserie/grilled chicken. On weeknights, cook fresh bowtie pasta, heat sauce, add chicken. Wallah! Dinner is ready to devour!
I words of Ina Garten, "How easy was that?!"
So, let's make some Chicken Florentine Pasta tonight!
CREAMY CHICKEN FLORENTINE SAUCE
Florentine (in food context) means food served on bed of spinach. The signature Florentine Spinach Sauce was my inspiration to make this creamy chicken Florentine Pasta. Like I mentioned, to lighten-up the sauce, I replaced the heavy cream in sauce with half and half i.e. part heavy cream and part milk. This also makes sauce right consistency to work with pasta.
For lite homey summer dinner flavor, I flavored the sauce with sun-dried tomatoes, herbs and chicken stock. A subtle tang of sun-dried tomatoes helps cut the richness and make sauce extra-special. You will love the flavors.
Tip: If you don't have sun-dried tomatoes, use zest of a lemon. You can also fold in fresh cherry tomatoes in the sauce.
FROZEN VS FRESH SPINACH?
Any day, I will choose fresh spinach over frozen. Simply because I always have fresh spinach in refrigerator as we love using it as base for summer salads.
Specially for Florentine sauce, fresh spinach is better than frozen. Frozen thawed spinach still holds lot of water and is not that easy to squeeze. No mater what, it will retain some water. This water can dilute the sauce or bland the flavor for sure. In Florentine sauce, spinach is the star. So, to control the amount of liquid in sauce, I used fresh spinach. I cook fresh spinach with pinch of salt and a tsp oil in skillet until it is wilted. Then let it drain while I prepare the rest of sauce. This helps to make much silky and never-watery.
Let me summarize why should you try this Chicken Pasta tonight!
- Easy to prepare with only 15 minutes of prep.
- Creamy yet lite sauce. Perfect for summer dinner.
- Delicious and versatile Florentine Sauce loaded with spinach flavor. Make once use multiple ways. Make Florentine Pasta, Florentine Pizza or serve as dip with Garlic Bread.
