Equipment

Notes

  • Fresh or Frozen Tortellini. Either will work but I prefer the fresh tortellini that you’ll find in the refrigerated section of the grocery store. It has the best flavor and I like how quickly it cooks.

  • Switch Up the Protein. You can use cooked Italian sausage in place of the chicken for a different flavor and texture.

  • Spice It Up. Add red pepper flakes or a pinch of cayenne pepper for a bit of heat.
