Ingredients
- 4 chicken thigh fillets (boneless skinless)
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (to season)
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper (to season)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (divided)
- 1 yellow onion (medium, chopped)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced, or 1 tablespoon minced garlic)
- 1/3 cup dry white wine (or chicken stock/broth)
- 8 ounces brown mushrooms (sliced)
- 1 quart chicken broth (or stock)
- 12 ounce evaporated milk (can )
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper (to taste)
- 10 ounces uncooked penne pasta (just over 4 cups)
- 1 cup parmesan cheese (fresh grated )
- 1/4 cup parsley (chopped)
Steps
-
Season chicken thighs with dried basil, salt and pepper. Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a large saucepan or pot over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs and sear on both sides until golden brown, cooked through and no longer pink. Remove and set aside.
-
Add the remaining oil to the pot. Fry the onion and garlic until the onion becomes transparent, stirring occasionally (about 2 minutes). Pour in the white wine and allow to simmer for 5 minutes, or until beginning to reduce down.
-
Add the mushrooms and cook for a further 3 minutes, while stirring occasionally. Then, add the broth, milks (or cream if using), salt and pepper, and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the pasta and simmer until pasta is al dente, about 15 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
-
Stir in the parmesan cheese until it melts through the sauce. Remove from heat and allow to sit for 5 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken. Slice the chicken into strips and stir through the pasta.
-
Garnish with fresh parsley and extra parmesan, if desired
-
Enjoy!
