Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb | 500 g boneless skinless chicken thighs, ((or breasts))
Salt and pepper, (to season)
2 tbsp olive oil, (divided)
1 onion, (diced)
4 cloves garlic, (minced (or 1 tablespoon minced garlic))
1/2 cup (125 ml) dry white wine, ((optional))
8 oz (250 g) brown mushrooms, (sliced)
2 cups (500 ml) chicken broth, (or stock)
1 1/2 cups (375 ml) heavy cream, divided ((thickened cream, light cream, evaporated milk can also be used))
Extra salt and pepper, (to taste)
8 oz (250 g) dry pasta, (penne or fettuccini)
1 1/2 cups freshly grated parmesan cheese
Fresh chopped parsley, (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper.
  • Heat half of the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs and sear on both sides until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken and set aside.
  • Add the remaining oil in the pot. Fry onion until transparent, stirring occasionally (about 2 minutes). Sauté the garlic until fragrant (30 seconds), then add in the white wine and allow to reduce to half (about 4-5 minutes). Add the mushrooms and cook for about a minute, while stirring occasionally.
  • Pour in broth and 1 cup of cream (or evaporated milk); season with salt and pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer then add the pasta. Mix well, reduce the heat to a slow simmer while stirring occasionally, until pasta is al dente (about 15 minutes).
  • Stir in the parmesan cheese until it melts through the sauce. Remove from heat immediately and slowly add in 1/4-1/2 cup remaining cream if sauce it too thick for your liking. Adjust salt and pepper to your taste.
  • Slice the chicken into strips and stir through the pasta. Garnish with fresh parsley and extra parmesan, if desired

BASIL CHICKEN AND PASTA



Basil Chicken and Pasta image

This is a great quick meal; the chicken and sauce can be prepared in the time it takes to cook the pasta. You can add more cream or less pasta if you like it creamier. Try ziti or farfalle pasta to add even more variety to this recipe. The leftovers don't heat very well, so eat it all up the first time!
