Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
1 lb cheese tortellini frozen
1/2 tbl butter
1 tbl olive oil
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1/4" strips
1 x red bell pepper cut into thin
strips
1/2 tsp sage
(or 2T fresh sage leaves, in strips)
salt and coarsely ground black pepper to to taste
4 slc chicken smoked,cut in strips
or turkey
1/2 tsp lemon rind grated
2 tbl lemon juice
Instructions:
Instructions: Cook tortellini in boiling water according to instructions on package.

Meanwhile melt butter and olive oil in large frying pan over medium high heat. Add chicken breast, salt, pepper, and ground sage*, and stir fry for
about 3 minutes. Add red pepper strips, turn heat down to medium, and cook
until chicken and pepper is done, stirring periodically.

Add smoked turkey or chicken strips and stir fry until heated through.

Add tortellini, lemon rind, lemon juice, and parsley. Add more salt and pepper if needed. Stir for a minute or two to heat and mix.

Serves
about 6.

*If you use fresh sage, add it later in the process, with the smoked turkey.

Also, the original recipe said to roast and peel the red pepper, which I think is too much work. You can buy canned roasted peppers which work wonderfully. If you use them, add them later, too, with the smoked turkey, since theyre already cooked. I like them, but I also like plain red bell pepper.
