Black Garlic Chicken

Ingredients:
2 Chicken breasts
1 red sweet pepper, chopped
8 cloves of black garlic
1 package tortellini
1/4 c. shredded Parmesan
olive oil
salt and pepper

Heat a skillet to medium heat and add about 2 Tbs. olive oil. Salt and pepper your chicken, then add to the skillet. Cover for 5 minutes, then flip the chicken. Add the sweet peppers and 5 garlic cloves to the chicken. Break the garlic up with your fingers so it isn't whole cloves. Cover. Boil water in a medium sized pot. Add some salt to the water. When the water is boiling, add your tortellini and cook according to package. When the tortellini is done, which it won't take long, place the tortellini back into the pot. Add 3 Tbs. olive oil and the remaining garlic cloves that have been broken into pieces. Add the Parmesan to the tortellini and toss together. After the chicken has been cooking for about 5-7 more minutes on the other side, check with a knife for done-ness and remove from heat. Place on a plate with a side of the tortellini and enjoy!
