Title: Chicken Mushroom Pasta BBC
Ingredients:
– 12 oz pasta of your choice
– 2 chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
– 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 small onion, finely chopped
– 1 tsp dried thyme
– 1/2 cup chicken broth
– 1/2 cup heavy cream
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
– Grated Parmesan cheese (for serving)
Instructions:
1. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a cup of pasta water.
2. In a large skillet, heat some olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until they are browned on all sides, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if needed. Add the onions and cook until they turn translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme, and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
4. Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they have softened and released their moisture, about 5-6 minutes.
5. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to combine with the mushrooms and onions.
6. Pour in the chicken broth and let it simmer for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
7. Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream. Let the sauce simmer gently for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
8. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. If the sauce is too thick, you can add some of the reserved pasta water to thin it out.
9. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat it evenly with the creamy chicken and mushroom sauce.
10. Serve the Chicken Mushroom Pasta BBC hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley and a generous sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
