Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp olive oil $0.22
- 1/2 yellow onion $0.16
- 3 cloves garlic $0.21
- 1 lb. mushrooms $3.38
- 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour $0.02
- 1 cup chicken broth $0.00
- 1/2 cup white wine $7.99 bottle
- 1/2 cup half-and-half $0.30
- 1/2 tsp thyme $0.05, dried
- salt $0.05, to taste
- black pepper $0.05, to taste
- 1/4 bunch parsley $0.22, fresh
- 2 oz. parmesan $1.00
- 8 oz. pasta $0.59
- 2 chicken breast $2.49, boneless, skinless
Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper (or any other seasoning you like). Cook on a George Foreman Grill about 8 minutes per breast. Alternatively, you can cook them in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes per side or until cooked through. Keep the chicken on a plate covered with foil until ready to eat.
- While the chicken is cooking, prepare the sauce. Cut the onion into a small dice and mince the garlic. Cook them in a large skillet over medium heat with olive oil. Cook about two minutes or until the onion is translucent. Add the sliced mushrooms and a dash of salt and cook until the mushrooms have completely softened and released all of their moisture (about 7 minutes).
- Add the 2 Tbsp of flour to the skillet. Stir and cook for about 2 minutes. It will coat the mushrooms and will begin to turn golden in color. Just make sure to keep stirring so that the flour does not burn.
- Add the chicken broth to the skillet along with the white wine and thyme. Whisk until no flour lumps remain. Let simmer until thickened (about 3-5 minutes).
- While the sauce is simmering, get a large pot of water boiling for the pasta. Cook the pasta according to the directions on the box (boil for 5-7 minutes or until al dente then drain).
- Once the sauce has thickened, turn off the heat and stir in the cream. Continue to let simmer until reduced in volume and thickened. Give the sauce a taste and season with salt and pepper.
- Roughly chop the parsley and stir it in with the drained pasta. Grate about 2 ounces of parmesan over top (or top each serving individually). Slice the chicken and serve each bowl of pasta with a few slices of chicken.
