Post date: Aug 11, 2015 8:14:41 PM

Ingredients

8 ounces GF noodles

4 tbsp butter

1/4 cup onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

4 tbsps GF White Rice Flour

2 cups milk

1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

1 cup parmesan cheese, shredded

2 cups cooked chicken, diced

3 handfuls fresh spinach, roughly chopped

1 (12 ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped

salt and pepper, to taste

2 tbsp GF breadcrumbs

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Cook noodles for 2 minutes less than the package directions suggest. Drain and set aside.

Meanwhile, in a large heavy bottomed stock pot or deep skillet, saute onions and garlic over medium heat for 3 minutes. Add the rice flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.

Slowly add the milk to the pan, stirring constantly with a whisk to avoid clumps. Simmer for 5 minutes, or until sauce thickens.

Remove from the heat, add the shredded cheese to the sauce and season with salt and pepper. (The sauce will be stringy and very cheesy at this point.) Stir the chicken, cooked pasta, spinach and artichokes into the sauce.

Pour the mixture into a greased 9 x 9 baking dish. Sprinkle with the GF breadcrumbs. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
