Tortilleni Diablo

I made this last night after cross country practice and had it on the table on 40 minutes.

1 package fresh cheese tortellini, cooked according to package direction, drained

3 Tbs butter
2 small boneless chicken breasts, sliced
3 links Johnsonville andouille sausage
package mushrooms, sliced
1 tsp minced garlic
1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes, sliced
2 cups heavy cream
red pepper flakes to taste, salt and pepper to taste

Heat a large skillet and melt 4 TBS butter
saute one package of sliced mushrooms until tender and beginning to brown. Add a teaspoon of minced garlic.  Add 3 links Johnsonville andouille sausage, sliced and allow to begin to brown.  Add 2 small boneless chicken breasts, which you have sliced.  Add 1/4 cup sliced dehydrated sun dried tomatoes (sliced and rehydrate according to package directions)
Add 2 cups heavy cream and heat to reduce. 
Add tortellini and 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper flakes & salt and pepper to taste.  Allow sauce to thicken and coat the pasta.  Top with Parmesan cheese and sliced green onions (if desired)
Serve immediately.  Yummy!

This makes a nice lunch and can be served cold if desired.
