Chicken Scallopini with Saffron Cream Sauce
Saffron and pine nuts. Two ingredients that I love but really have a hard time bringing myself to purchase without feeling guilty because of the sheer cost. Oh, but there's nothing quite as delicious as a fresh batch of basil pesto with pine nuts slathered on a crispy cracker. Try to imagine my joy and surprise as I unwrapped a pretty little bottle of saffron from my stocking last Christmas. I sure landed myself a thoughtful husband!
I decided to use some of my lovely saffron in a cream sauce and serve it over chicken and pasta. The chicken is so tender and juicy. Pour that dreamy, delicious saffron cream sauce on top and it's just over-the-top Ahh-mazing! It's so easy, and it's perfect for a weeknight meal. I also poured some of that velvety sauce over pasta and served it with steamed broccoli. This is definitely one of my favorites!
