Italian Chicken Pasta with a Smoked Mozzarella and Tomato Cream Sauce


2 pounds chicken tenders
3 teaspoons Wildtree Italian Salad Dressing Mix
2 Tablespoon Wildtree Roasted Garlic Grapeseed Oil
OR
1 Tablespoon Wildtree Zesty Lemon Grapeseed Oil (if you have both the Garlic and Lemon)

Mix all ingredients in a freezer bag and either marinate for 2 hours or throw it in the freezer for a later time.

At cooking time: 

1 bag thin spaghetti or linguini
1 14oz can of fire roasted tomatoes
1 teaspoon Wildtree Italian Dressing Mix 
2 teaspoons Wildtree Smoked Mozarella & Tomato Blend
1 Tablespoon Wildtree Roasted Garlic Grapeseed Oil
1/2 cup of heavy cream

Cook your pasta according to the package directions. In a separate skillet (preferably one with sides), add the 1 Tablespoon of the Roasted Garlic Grapeseed Oil - brown and cook your chicken tenders completely over medium-low heat. After your chicken is cooked through, remove it from the pan and set aside. In the same pan, build the sauce by adding your remaining ingredients and letting them cook down together to combine the flavors. After a few minutes, I threw in the pasta and mixed everything together -- allowing the pasta to soak up the sauce as much as possible. 

It wasn't very liquid sauce, which was what I was going for. Serve with a nice Caesar Salad and some garlic bread.
