My mom has actually been making this for me for years because it’s a fast and simple meal that can be thrown together easily. My papa and I seriously can’t get enough of it. Even though she has always told me how easy it is to make, I never bothered doing so until now. We usually stick with a basic meal plan that doesn’t change much from month to month.
Unfortunately, as my kiddos grow, so do their very unique tastes. It was time to change it up a little so I decided to surprise them with this deliciousness. I was rewarded with cleaned plates and requests for seconds! Not bad for a mom of 3.
Since it was such a hit, I knew I had to share the recipe with you. Don’t worry about the wine in the dish. All of the alcohol cooks off when you boil the sauce. This is a totally family-friendly dish that everyone will love.
Tip:
- If you don’t have any dry white wine in your pantry, you can still make this dish without it. Add a cup of chicken broth instead to replace the liquid. Full disclosure: without the wine, the depth of flavor isn’t as great but the dish is still delicious.
