Ingredients:
- 3 medium chicken breasts, cut into small pieces
- 1 tbsp of Olive oil or butter
- 2 or 3 cloves of Garlic, minced
- 1 medium Onion
- 2 cups (180g) of White mushrooms
- 1 cup (225g) of Spinach (optional)
- 1/2 tbsp Italian or Mediterranean herbs
- Salt and black pepper to your liking
- 1/2 tsp Smoked paprika (optional)
- 1/2 cup (100ml) of Heavy cream
- Grated Romano or Parmesan cheese
- Fettuccine or Linguine Pasta
Steps to make it:
- Cut your chicken breasts in smaller pieces lengthwise to make thinner cutlets. Season them with salt & pepper and optionally some Smoked Paprika.
- Add the oil to a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the pan's hot, add the chicken. Cook it for 4-5 minutes/side until golden brown to sear in the juices.
- Once this step is done, take the chicken out of the pan and set it aside for now.
- Pour some olive oil or melt some butter into a frying pan.
- Add in the chopped garlic and Italian herbs until the garlic is fragrant.
- Add in the sliced onions and sliced mushrooms, salt, and black pepper to taste.
- Cover and cook until soft on medium to low heat. Add in the heavy cream, and optionally the spinach.
- Add the browned meat back in.
- Let simmer on low heat until the creamy sauce reduces and thickens.
- Serve over the cooked pasta (we like Linguine), sprinkle some Romano or Asiago cheese, and enjoy!
