Penne Gorgonzola Chicken

This is definitely a "splurge" meal. Don't even think about it if you're dieting! I'm going to list the recipe as I found it, although I did try to lighten it up just a bit by using half-and-half, less butter, and reduced-fat gorgonzola. I did half the recipe and used only one 6 oz chicken breast which was plenty.

PENNE GORGONZOLA CHICKEN

3 chicken breasts
1 lb penne pasta
1/2 cup butter
1 pt heavy cream
4 oz gorgonzola, crumbled
1/4 c shredded parmesan
1/2 tsp nutmeg

Season chicken with S&P and grill. Slice into thin strips. Bring water to a boil and add pasta. While pasta is cooking, make the sauce.

Melt butter in saucepan, heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Simmer 1 minute being careful not to let the butter burn. Slowly add cream and heat to a low boil to reduce, stirring constantly. Boil for 3 minutes. Reduce heat, add gorgonzola, parmesan, and nutmeg. Stir until melted. Serve sauce over noodles and top with chicken.
