Ingredients
– 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
– 8 ounces mushrooms, thinly sliced
– 1/2 white onion, diced small
– 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
– 1 cup marsala wine (not cooking marsala wine)
– 2 cups chicken broth
– 3 cups heavy cream
– 1 pound orecchiette pasta, uncooked (or any other short pasta shape)
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 teaspoon pepper
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon dried basil
– 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1 to 2 tablespoons cornstarch
– 2 tablespoons milk
– 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan
– 1/2 bunch fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
1-Cut the chicken breasts into small, bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
2-Heat a large pot over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, then add the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until no longer pink. Set the chicken aside once done.
3-Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pot, along with the sliced mushrooms, onion, and garlic; sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and softened.
4-Return the chicken to the pot and mix everything together.
5-Pour in the chicken broth, heavy cream, marsala wine, pasta, oregano, basil, and thyme. Bring to a boil, cover with a lid, reduce heat to low, and cook for 10-12 minutes or until the pasta is tender.
6-Remove the lid, mix the cornstarch with the milk, and stir it into the pasta. Bring to a boil for about 5-10 minutes until the sauce thickens, adding more cornstarch if needed.
7-Stir in the parmesan cheese and garnish with the fresh parsley before serving immediately.
