Instructions

  • Cook the tortellini according to the package directions. Drain well and set aside.
  • Heat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Season the chicken well on both sides with salt and pepper. Drizzle with a little bit of olive oil to prevent from sticking. Cook on both sides to an internal temperature of 160°F using a thermometer. Set aside to rest before slicing.

  • Remove from the heat and stir in the egg yolk parmesan mixture until smooth.
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, if needed.
  • Top with sliced chicken and parmesan. Serve with bread, garnish with parsley and red pepper flakes (if using).
