Category: Pasta - Seafood
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

3/4 lb whole wheat penne
Olive oil
Salt
Pepper
1 lb chicken tenders, cut in bite-sized pieces
1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
3 tbsp olive oil
6 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
dash of red pepper flakes
1/4 cup vodka
1 lb medium shrimp, peeled
1/2 cup light cream
1 tbsp butter
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus additional for serving

Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat and add the penne and cook for 9 - 11 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Meanwhile preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the chicken on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 10 - 15 minutes or until just cooked through. Remove from oven and set aside.

While the penne and the chicken are cooking, heat the 3 tbsp of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the both cans of tomatoes and bring sauce to a boil. Season with salt and the red pepper flakes. Boil for 2 - 3 minutes. Pour in the vodka and simmer for about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, take out the garlic and add the shrimp. Continue cooking the sauce until the shrimp are just cooked through, about 3 - 5 minutes.

Add the cream, butter and chicken and stir to combine. Place the pasta in a large serving dish and add the sauce and the Parmesan cheese. Stir to combine and add more salt and red pepper flakes if desired. Serve with additional Parmesan cheese. Serves 6
