    Olive Garden San Marco

    Source: The Olive Garden

    Vegetables
    1 cup green bell pepper, julienne
    1 cup red bell pepper, julienne
    1 3/4 cups broccoli florets, cut small
    1 cup zucchini, sliced 1/4-inch, then halved
    1 cup yellow squash, sliced 1/4-inch, then halved
    3 tablespoons olive oil

    Pasta
    6 cups fresh fettuccine, cooked and drained
    1 tablespoon olive oil

    San Marco Sauce
    3 tablespoons olive oil
    2 pounds chicken thigh meat, skinned and boned,
    cubed 1-inch
    2 large yellow onions, diced
    1 cup carrots, peeled and julienned
    1 tablespoon garlic, chopped fine
    1 cup chicken broth
    28 ounces Italian plum tomatoes, canned with juice
    1 teaspoon dried oregano
    1 teaspoon dried rosemary
    3/4 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    2 teaspoons Wondra flour

    SAUCE: Preheat a heavy non-aluminum Dutch oven or similar 6-quart pot over
    moderately high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is fragrant, add
    the chicken meat pieces and sauté, turning frequently for 5 or minutes until
    lightly browned on all sides.

    Add the onions and carrots and sauté, stirring constantly, until the onions
    are translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté about 30 seconds.
    Do not allow the garlic to brown. Immediately add the broth to the pot. Stir
    bits and pieces loose from the bottom of the pot. Add all additional
    ingredients, lower the heat to a gently simmer and cover the pot. Simmer
    gently, stirring occasionally, until the chicken meat pieces are tender, but
    not soft, about 5 to 10 minutes.

    As the sauce is finishing cooking, add 3 tablespoons oil to a heavy skillet
    and sauté the bell peppers, squashes and broccoli over medium heat until
    just crisp-tender. Add the veggies to the sauce when the chicken meat is
    tender, blend all together and turn off the heat. Adjust the salt, pepper
    and herb levels to taste. Toss the cooked pasta with 1 tablespoon oil to
    prevent sticking and add to the sauce; blend chicken, veggies and sauce
    thoroughly and serve along with Parmesan cheese.
