Mushroom Chicken Pasta

Here’s a comforting recipe for Mushroom Chicken Pasta that’s perfect for a cozy meal:

Ingredients:

Instructions:

  1. Cook the pasta: Boil the pasta according to the package directions. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain and set aside.
  2. Cook the chicken: Season the sliced chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Cook the mushrooms: In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp olive oil and butter. Add the mushrooms and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until golden and tender. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Make the sauce: Pour in the chicken broth to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any browned bits. Then add the heavy cream and Italian seasoning. Simmer for 3-4 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  5. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper. If the sauce is too thick, use some of the reserved pasta water to loosen it up.
  6. Combine everything: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss it in the creamy mushroom sauce. Slice the chicken and place it on top of the pasta.
  7. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley or thyme before serving.

This Mushroom Chicken Pasta is rich and full of earthy flavors, perfect for a delicious and satisfying meal!
