Description

Tender diced chicken seasoned with Dan-o’s Original and seared right on the griddle until golden and juicy, then tossed with sun-dried tomatoes and marinated artichoke hearts for a bold, Mediterranean twist. Everything gets wrapped in a rich, creamy Alfredo sauce and folded into Barilla Heart Pasta for the ultimate cozy-meets-romantic dinner. Finished with fresh basil, a snowy shower of freshly grated Parmesan, and just the right touch of salt… this is the kind of date night meal that feels fancy, effortless, and totally unforgettable.

  4. 4. Turn griddle to low and add Alfredo sauce, sun dried tomatoes, artichokes, and toss with chicken.
  5. 5. Drain cooked pasta and add to griddle with chicken and sauce. Toss all ingredients to coat with sauce.
  6. 6. Turn griddle off and grate fresh parmesan on top. Plate pasta and chicken and top with fresh basil leaves.
