Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1 pound chicken cut into 1 inch pieces
- 3 tablespoons flour
- ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound penne pasta
- 6 ounces 3/4 cup goat cheese, crumbled
- 8 ounce container mushrooms, sliced
- ½ cup sun dried tomatoes
- 3 cloves garlic
- 6 ounces fresh baby spinach
- fresh basil for garnish
- Parmesan Cheese for garnish
Instructions
- Cook pasta according to package. Reserve 2 cups starchy pasta water before draining.
- Meanwhile, toss chicken pieces in flour, garlic salt, and pepper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add chicken. Cook and stir 5-6 minutes until done. Remove from pan and cover.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in the pan over medium heat and add the mushrooms, tomatoes, and garlic. Cook and stir for 4-5 minutes until mushrooms are tender. Add the chicken back as well as the spinach and cook 1-2 minutes until the spinach is almost wilted. Remove pan from heat.
- Once the pasta is cooked and drained, place it back in the pot along with the goat cheese and 1 cup reserved starchy pasta water. Toss until the cheese melts and forms a creamy sauce (add the remaining reserved water if you want the sauce to be thinner). Mix in the chicken and vegetables and serve topped with fresh basil and Parmesan cheese.
