This was a rather quick and easy recipe! Was so surprised Mark liked it and I think it is a light alternative to a heavy alfredo…
2 chicken breasts, seasoned with a dash of olive oil/salt/pepper, baked at 425 degrees for 25 minutes and then cubed
4-5 cloves garlic, minced
1-2 cups mushrooms, sliced
3/4 sweet onion, diced
1-2 cups snow peas
White wine
1 tbsp flour
1-2 cups half & half
1 packet spaghetti (you can use any pasta really…I will use penne or bowties next time)
In a saucepan, sauté garlic, onions and mushrooms in a bit of olive oil until the onions are slightly translucent.
Remove the majority of the mushrooms and then deglaze the saucepan with a bit of white wine. Reduce to about half and then add the half & half. When the half & half starts to heat, add the flour and stir well until it starts to thicken.
Then add the mushrooms and baked chicken cubes to the pan. Cook for a few more minutes on medium heat, stirring well. Sample and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Add the snow peas, reduce the heat a bit and then cover the pan. The sauce should thicken and the peas will steam.
Poor over your cooked pasta and serve immediately!

Sounds delicious! How long did this take to cook and serve in total? Also, what kind of white wine would you suggest (brand, etc.)? Thanks for sharing. 🙂
right around 20 minutes. Honestly we just used the day before Sauv Blanc! 🙂 Thanks for visiting us!
