Chicken Pesto with Penne

This one passes muster - have tried it twice...with success! Penne, linguine, fettucine...a good pasta that will hold the creamy pesto.

2 T butter
2 T olive oil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 1/4 c heavy cream
1/4 c pesto sauce (recipe from November 20, 2008) - you can add more if that's your preference
shredded roasted chicken (I use Costco - it can't be beat!)
1 lb penne (or your pasta of choice...just don't use angel hair, it's too light), cooked
shredded asiago and parmesan cheese, (about 3 T. each)
salt and pepper to taste

- Heat butter and olive oil in a skillet, add garlic and saute until fragrant. Add shredded chicken, pesto and cream and cook until heated through, add salt and pepper. Add pasta and toss to coat with the sauce, let it heat so the sauce thickens and absorbs in the pasta. Turn off heat and add the cheese - toss well to mix.
