Chicken Scampi!!! :)

Hello fellow bloggers!
Today I will be reviewing my take on Olive Gardens Chicken Scampi.
The original recipe is...
3 tbs. Butter
2 tbs. Chopped Onion
1/4 c Minced Garlic
1 1/2 c. Chablis Wine
1/2 tbs. Salt
1/2 tsp. Italian Seasoning
1/2 tsp. Pepper
2 tsp. Parsley
1 c. Heavy Cream
Water
16 ounces Angel Hair Pasta
4 tbs. Olive Oil
12 Chicken Tenderloins
1/2 c. Flour
1 green,1 red, and 1 yellow bell pepper (bite sized)


Here's what the ingredients that I used looks like.

Now Here are the substitutions I made to make the meal Gluten, Dairy, Corn, and Egg free.
Instead of Angel Hair Pasta I used Organic Brown Rice Penne Pasta, and Coconut Milk and a small amount of rice flour (for thickening) instead of Heavy Cream.

Also instead of butter for both versions i put Olive Oil in the pan instead so I would not have to do anything different. You can use which ever you would like.

First I cooked the chicken which I covered in white rice flower before putting in the pan. I cooked it until golden brown.
Here's what it looked like.
When it was done cooking, I put it on a plate and cooked the peppers and onions in the same pan. Once they were slightly cooked I added the cream/coconut milk with rice flour,garlic, salt, Italian seasoning and parsley. We let that simmer for a while on medium heat For the health conscience version I added Sun Dried Tomatoes to help add flavor.

While that was cooking we cooked our Angel Hair Pasta. (I am not going to insult your intelligence by telling you how to cook pasta.)



Then we strained the pasta and added it to the sauce and put the chicken tenderloins on top! :)
Here is the Health Conscience version when it is finished.
Here is what the original looks like when its finished.
