This is a sponsored post, written by me, on behalf of Dominick’s. I was given a $50 gift card to purchase the ingredients needed for this meal. I also have a $50 gift card to give away. Details for entering at the end of this post! All opinions are 100% mine!

I’m so excited about this fun opportunity to partner with Dominick’s again. This time, I was sent a list of ingredients and had to prepare a meal around them. Luckily, I got the things needed for an Italian meal. I swear, I’m part Italian somewhere down the line because I can make a mean pasta dish!

Here are the ingredients I was given: Dell’ Alpe Imported Canned Pear Tomatoes and Dell’ Alpe Parmesan Cheese.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I added additional ingredients, purchased at Dominick’s: chicken breast tenderloins, mushrooms, pasta, giardienera, and fresh basil. From my pantry I used minced garlic, salt, and pepper.

The pear tomatoes come out of the can whole in juice. I used a knife to chop them up some and them used the tongs to squish them in the pan.

I sauteed the chicken tenderloins in a little olive oil.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I added the mushrooms and let cook a few minutes more.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I added the tomatoes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I added a spoon full of minced garlic.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I tore up a few fresh basil leaves.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It simmered while the water cooked to a boil and the noodles cooked. Then we poured some over penne pasta and mangia! This was sooooo good! Don’t you want some?!
