Penne with Chanterelles and Sun-dried Tomatoes
- 1lb package penne – cook per instructions and drain
- 1/2 lb fresh chanterelle, roughly sliced
- 6 large shallots, roughly sliced
- 10 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 oz fresh oregano, chopped
- 1/2 oz fresh basil, chopped
- 3 oz sun-dried tomatoes (I used smoked), julienne cut
- 4-6 Tbsps chicken broth
- 2-3 Tbsps Marsala, or light sherry
- Olive oil
- 2-3 Tbsps sour cream, or fresh cream
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Parmesan cheese
Stir often. Over medium to high heat, saute shallots and garlic in large skillet with sufficient olive oil to just coat bottom of pan. Just as they get a little color, add 2-3 tablespoons chicken broth and 2-3 tablespoons of Marsala. When liquid is reduced about A1/2, add chanterelle, saute for 2-3 minutes, then add tomatoes, oregano and basil. Add a further 2-3 tablespoons chicken broth. When liquid is reduced, incorporate freshly drained penne. Turn off heat, add 2-3 tablespoons sour or fresh cream, stir until incorporated. Serve, salt and pepper to taste, sprinkle with grated or shaved parmesan.
