Yield: 6 Servings

Prep Time: 20

Cook Time: 22

Total Time: 42

Ingredients

3 large chicken breasts
1 pound penne pasta
½ cup butter
1 pint heavy cream
4 ounces gorgonzola, crumbled
¼ cup shredded parmesan
½ teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions

Season chicken with salt and pepper and grill (I used my indoor grill pan). 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.
