There are so many pasta recipes that I want to share, but this delicious asiago tortelloni alfredo with grilled chicken Olive Garden inspired recipe is definitely the best. I recently ate this tasty Italian food from Olive Garden, and I wanted to try recreating it. So, if you want to recreate some Olive Garden recipes, then here’s my own interpretation of their flavor-packed chicken pasta. It has tender grilled chicken breasts, cheese-stuffed tortellini pasta, three kinds of cheese, and breadcrumb toppings. All these ingredients come together to make a great tasting baked tortellini pasta recipe.
The ingredients were easy to find in my local grocery store, except for the asiago tortelloni Olive Garden uses. It may be a bit difficult to find this kind of tortelloni pasta, so I went ahead and bought tortellini pasta instead. Tortelloni pasta is bigger than tortellini. So naturally, it can hold a lot more cheese stuffing. Olive Garden uses asiago cheese filled tortelloni, but it’s okay to buy a regular cheese tortellini since there’s not much of a difference in terms of flavor. Although, if you can find one, then all the better!
After I bought cheese tortellini, it was time to get cooking. I made my own alfredo sauce using butter, minced garlic, heavy cream, and parmesan cheese with added romano cheese. It was extra creamy and cheesy which was absolutely divine. By this time, the chicken, alfredo sauce, and tortellini pasta were ready. I assembled them on a greased baking dish, sprinkled the shredded mozzarella cheese and panko breadcrumbs on top, and then broiled them for about 3 to 5 minutes to achieve that slightly browned and bubbly topping.
I enjoyed eating this copycat Olive Garden asiago tortelloni alfredo with grilled chicken with garlic bread on the side. It paired perfectly with the creamy, cheesy, and rich flavor of the asiago tortelloni alfredo pasta.
