    12 oz. heavy cream

    Recipe



    Sauce preparation:

    In a 3-quart sauce pan or large pot, saute bacon over medium/high heat until
    crisp and golden (not dark). Lower heat, add butter and melt. Add garlic and
    sun-dried tomatoes. Saute for approximately one minute stirring frequently
    (do not brown).

    Whisk in cream, milk and cornstarch. Raise heat to medium/high. Whisk in
    Parmesan and Gouda.

    Once cheese melts, add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil stirring
    continuously. Remove from heat and let stand uncovered.

    Chicken preparation:

    Mix flour with salt and pepper. Coat chicken in seasoned flour, shake off
    all excess flour.

    Heat olive oil in large saute pan. Add chicken in a single layer and cook
    until golden brown on both sides (approx. seven minutes). Using a meat
    thermometer, make sure the internal temperature of the thickest piece of
    chicken reaches 165 F.

    Add wine to pan (caution: there will be a low flame in pan). Toss gently
    until wine is evaporated. Once reduced, bring to a boil on medium/high heat.

    Place 6 ounces of cooked pasta on each plate. Evenly distribute chicken and
    sauce over pasta. Garnish with chopped parsley.

    Serving Size: Makes 4 Servings
