Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat.
Add garlic, Italian seasoning, and a couple pinches of salt and pepper. Cook, frequently stirring for about 30 seconds.
Stir in a few splashes of chicken broth until it cleans the bottom of the pan. Be sure to scrape all the yummy bits off the bottom.
Add sun-dried tomatoes, heavy cream, chicken broth, Parmesan cheese, and a couple pinches of salt and pepper.
Cook for a couple minutes over medium-low heat until the cheese is melted. Bring it to a simmer and gently simmer until the sauce thickens slightly. Add white wine vinegar.
Stir in rotisserie chicken and pasta. Cook for a couple minutes until warmed through. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Top with fresh basil and enjoy!

Notes

- Sun-Dried Tomatoes. Opt for jarred sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil for extra richness. Sautéing them with garlic adds an intense, tangy flavor to the sauce.

- Simmer Sauce. Let the creamy sauce simmer for a few minutes to thicken and intensify the flavors. Heavy cream, Parmesan, and seasonings come together beautifully when given time to meld.

- Garnish. Finish with plenty of fresh basil, cracked pepper, and extra Parmesan for a vibrant, flavorful touch that makes the dish feel complete.
