Chicken Scampi

---White Sauce---
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons flour
3/4 cup milk, hot

---Scampi Sauce---
3 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
black pepper, to taste
3/4 cup white wine
1 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup white sauce

---Remaining Ingredients---
2 chicken breasts, sliced
bell peppers, thinly sliced
red onions, thinly sliced
10 cloves garlic, roasted, see below
1/2 package angel hair pasta, cooked and drained

1!. Make the White Sauce first: Melt butter in sauce pan, add flour, and cook for 2 minutes on med!. heat!. Heat stirring constantly!. Slowly add hot milk (hot so it won't get lumpy)!. Set aside!. (Make sure that the white sauce is hot when adding to the scampi sauce)!.


2!. Next, make the Scampi Sauce: Heat butter over low heat!. Add the garlic, crushed red pepper, Italian seasoning, and black pepper!. Cook for about 2 minutes on low heat!. Add the wine and chicken broth!. Stir until combined (about 30-40 minutes)!. Add 1/4 cup white sauce and cook until slightly thickened!.

3!. In a large skillet, saute chicken in a little olive oil until nearly done!. Add the peppers and onions!. Saute until chicken is done!. Add Scampi Sauce!. Saute until everything is warmed!. Add roasted garlic cloves!. Serve over pasta!.

4!. For Roasted Garlic: Separate head of garlic into individual cloves still in 'paper'!. Toss in olive oil and wrap tightly in aluminum foil or a small pint sized dish with a lid!. Bake in 350* oven for 45 minutes!. When the garlic has cooled to the touch you should be able to squeeze it out of the 'paper' shell of the individual cloves!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Don't mean this to be a creepy response, but please don't eat veal!. Veal is made by taking a baby calf, and keeping it in a dark stall that is so small it can't lay down!. They don't want it to have any exercise so it's muscles will be loose!. They also give it liquid only, so it's tummy hurts and it stands in it's watery poo!. It's just a horrible life for an animal, severe cruelty to produce a piece of meat!.
Chili Rellano is a wonderful italian dish, lasanga style!. I recommend, and is mostly veggy, eggs, tomato sause, chili peppers, and lotsa cheddar cheese!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I moved to Italy about a year ago and was amazed at all the wonderful things there are to eat here- different from what I expected having grown up in America with Americanized Italian foods!.
One of my absolute favorites is Vitello con latte- Veal with milk sauce!.

Get a nice veal loin- or you can do it with a pork loin- not tenderloin, but the bigger loin portion

Salt and pepper the loin!.
In a deep pot heat enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan!. Ad one clove of smushed garlic, about 2 or 3 stems of rosemary, a bunch of sage leaves (like 20 or so) and sautee for a couple of minutes!. Then add the loin and brown it on all sides!.
Once the loin has been browned, pour in enough milk (whole, but if you are on a diet you can use 2 percent) to come up just over halfway up the sides of the loin!.
Let the loin cook in the milk as the milk cooks down!. The milk will become lumpy and thick!. At the end it will be a lumpy rich sauce!.
Take out the loin and very thinly (as thin as possible- we use a meat cutter here like at a deli) slice!. Spoon the milk sauce over the meat!.
Delicious!Www@FoodAQ@Com
