I made this tonight for my son and I and doubled the recipe for leftovers for my husband. We both liked it! It was kind of soupy but that may have been my fault because I put a little too much milk in it. I might freeze the extra sauce and "remake" it later with shrimp again or crab or chicken.

This was totally delicious! I used cheese tortellini rather than the penne pasta, shredded Italian blend cheese, and uncooked shrimp because it is what I had on hand. I also didn't have chicken broth so I disolved 2 chicken boulon cubes in about 1-1/2 cups of water. Also added a little more garlic because in taste testing the sauce, I didn't think it had enough. Could also add a small amount of pepper to it for a little kick. There was plenty of sauce I probably could have used 2 packages of tortellini.

This is wonderful! Tonight we had it with saute mushrooms, sundried tomatoes and crab added. Sprinkled with cayenne pepper and it gave it a great flavor!

I doubled the recipe and used 1/2 with shrimp and the other 1/2 with chicken. They both turned out delicious and everybody went back for seconds. Great recipe!
