Copycat Rigatoni D

Ok, confession time: I love pasta.  Really, who doesn’t?!  I mean it is so versatile and can be paired with just about everything for an amazing dish.
One of my favorite pasta dishes is from Maggiano’s {our local Italian place does a version that is really close as well} and it is called Rigatoni D.  It is full of mushrooms and chicken and just so delicious.  We’re trying to eat out a lot less so I decided to try and create a copycat of the recipe so we can enjoy it anytime we want at home.  I think my copycat Rigatoni D comes pretty close to the original so I am excited to have it whenever I want now.

One of main keys to this recipe is the mushrooms.  They are simmered in delicious balsamic vinegar to create a super deep flavor.

This turned out so close to the original and I am so excited that I can make one of my restaurant favorites at home!  I can even get my daughter to eat it if I take out the mushrooms.

  1. This sounds fantastic Shannah! Now can you make me a copycat Magianno’s fried mozzarella recipe? Definitely one of my favorite indulgences ever.

    1. Ooh, Britni! I would love to try making that! I will have to hit up Maggianos though to try the original first though.

  2. This looks delicious. I like it when you’re able to recreate a favorite restaurant dish at home. Most times, it’s better than the original.

  3. I flat out NEVER get tired of eating pasta – this looks deliciosa, and I can actually get all the ingredients! I’ll be giving it a try soon – pinned!

    1. I think I could eat pasta almost every day too…although I would need a day for some Mexican food too. Hope you enjoy this!
