Ingredients

• 32 ounces chicken broth divided


• 2 tablespoons cornstarch


• 1 (16 ounce) package frozen cheese tortellini


• 4 tablespoons butter


• 2 cloves garlic minced


• 2 teaspoons dried basil


• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese for garnish


• fresh parsley minced, for garnish, optional

Instructions

1. In a large pot, bring 2 ½ cups broth to a boil. Add cheese tortellini. Return to a boil and cook about 5 minutes. The tortellini will float to the top when cooked and the internal temperature should be 165ºF for at least 15 seconds. Drain completely.


2. Meanwhile, whisk together remaining 1 ½ cups broth with corn starch. In a large non-stick skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat until foaming. Stir in garlic and basil and cook about 2 minutes.


3. Add broth-cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil; simmer until the mixture thickens. Add the cooked tortellini to the skillet and toss to coat.


4. Pour into a serving dish and garnish with Parmesan cheese and parsley, if desired.

Recipe Notes

• To make this dish vegetarian, substitute vegetable broth for the chicken broth.


• Serves 8 as an appetizer or first course. Keep warm in a slow cooker if serving a buffet.
