Carmela’s Chicken Rigatoni (Copycat Romano’s Macaroni Grill) 🔗

This is the actual Macaroni Grill recipe for Carmela’s Chicken Rigatoni. At home, I use a combination of olive oil (2 T) and butter (4T) instead of butter flavored oil (less overall as well). In addition, I use Kittencal’s recipe for caramelized onions http://www.food.com/recipe/kittencals-caramelized-onions-89007.

FAQ

What is Milano sauce made of?

Using a food processor, puree the heavy cream with the roasted garlic, pepper, salt, and parmesan cheese. Transfer the pureed cream to a sauce pan, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
