Pasta Milano



1 head of garlic
1 qt. heavy whipping cream
1 pound shredded Parmesan cheese
12 oz. box Bow Tie Pasta
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 lb. mushrooms, chopped
1 c. Sun-dried tomatoes
Salt and pepper to taste
*optional: capers
*optional: artichokes

Sauce:
Bake full head of garlic at 350 degrees for 30 minutes in oven and using garlic press squeeze out the garlic, add heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese. Puree the ingredients in food processor/and or blender and then bring it to a boil in a sauce pan and simmer it for about 15-20 minutes. It increases in volume as it simmers so be careful not to overflow your sauce pan. Then add Sun-dried tomatoes to sauce and continue to simmer.

Pasta:

Cook 12 oz. box Bow Tie pasta according to package directions. Cook to an al dente consistency. Drain and add back to pot to add sauce at a later time.

Chicken:
Grill 2 chicken breasts. Cut into cubed pieces.

Mushrooms:
Cook as many mushrooms as you would like in butter. Add to sauce.

Now assemble everything back into pot of pasta. Serve with your favorite bread recipe. May add extra Parmesan as a topping if desired.
