Bella Chicken
I’ve been working on re-creating restaurants entrees lately, because even though we like to go out to eat, sometimes it isn’t always in the cards for us…. time.. money…calorie counting, whatever the reason sometime eating out isn’t going to work for us.
So I’ve been browsing restaurant menus online and found Bella Chicken from Ruby Tuesdays and it sounded pretty good 🙂
Here is Ruby Tuesdays Description:
Chicken Bella
Sautéed baby portabella mushrooms and artichokes in a Parmesan cream sauce over a fresh, grilled chicken breast.
• with white cheddar mashed potatoes and fresh, steamed broccoli
For Ours We didn’t have Cheddar mashed potatoes for a side, just the steamed broccoli, and I also didn’t have any artichokes so none were added in my version.
I don’t know if this is anything like the one at Ruby Tuesdays, because I’ve never had it there. I am just going by the descriptions on the menus to create something wonderful at home.
