Recipe Instructions

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; add the pasta, return to the boil and cook it to taste.

2. While the pasta is cooking, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large saucepan over low heat. Add the scallions and garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring, until softened. Add the chicken and cook, stirring, for a couple of minutes to heat through. Add the cream, tomatoes and rosemary to the chicken mixture and stir. Let the flavors meld for about 5 minutes. Stir in the parmesan cheese, and when it has melted, taste to see if the sauce needs a little more cream, tomato or cheese. Stir in the parsley, salt and pepper and check for a balance of seasoning.

3. When pasta is cooked, drain thoroughly, and stir in remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Combine the chicken mixture with the pasta and serve. 4. Pass more cheese on the side.
