Ingredients

  • 1 lb tortelloni or tortellini (like four cheese or chicken)
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp avocado or vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp red chilli flakes
  • 6 tbsp butter
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • 1 cup heavy cream a.k.a. whipping cream or 35% m.f. cream ((or evaporated milk - see notes below))
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Asiago cheese
  • Minced chives or parsley to serve

Directions

  1. 1

    Coat chicken with the oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder and red chlili flakes. Let stand at room temperature while you preheat a grill (or grill pan) for 5 minutes over medium-high heat. Oil the grates, then add the chicken. Cook undisturbed until it releases easily; about 5 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until it reaches internal temperature of 165ºF. Transfer the chicken to a plate and allow it to rest for 5 minutes, then cut it in thin slices crosswise.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it well.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, melt the butter over medium heat in a large saucepan. Add the garlic and cook until soft, about 1 minute. Whisk in the cream, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Add tortellini to the pot with the sauce and toss to coat. Taste and add more salt as needed. Divide among 6 plates and top with grilled chicken.
