4cupslow-sodium chicken broth, (I use Better Than Bouillon chicken base)
2cupsheavy cream
1lbpenne pasta, (or any short pasta)
1teaspoonkosher salt
1/4teaspoon ground black pepper
4 ouncescream cheese, softened
1cup grated Parmesan cheese
4cupsspinach leaves, chopped
6 ouncesmarinated artichokes, drained and chopped
Instructions
In a large deep skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper and sautee for 30 seconds.
Add the chicken broth, cream, pasta, salt, and pepper to the pan. Bring to a boil, cover, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer pasta at medium-low heat for 15-20 minutes stirring every once in a while, until pasta is tender.
Stir in the cream cheese and Parmesan until cream cheese is melted and combined. Add the spinach and artichokes. Cook for just a few minutes until the spinach wilts down. You are done! Remember the longer you simmer the sauce the thicker it will be. Also, when you take the pasta off the heat the sauce will thicken up more.
