Cooking Instructions
Cook the Penne
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the penne pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Prepare the Chicken
If not already grilled, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then grill over medium heat until cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Let rest before slicing.
Sauté the Sunchokes and Garlic
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced sunchokes and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until golden and tender. Add minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Combine Ingredients
Add the sundried tomatoes and cooked penne to the skillet. Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine, allowing the mixture to simmer for 3-4 minutes until heated through.
Add Cheese and Chicken
Stir in the crumbled gorgonzola cheese until melted and creamy. Add the sliced grilled chicken and toss everything together. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve
Plate the chicken penne and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve warm.
