Best Chicken And Peas With Pasta Recipes

ONE-POT CREAMY CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PASTA WITH PEAS

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and mushrooms and saute for 7-8 minutes, until onions are tender and the mushrooms have released most of their liquid.
• Add garlic, salt and pepper and saute for another 30 seconds.
• Add pasta and chicken broth and bring to a boil.
• Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 8-10 minutes, until most of the liquid is absorbed and the pasta is nearly cooked. I lift the lid and stir it once or twice during the cooking time so the pasta gets moved around and can cook evenly.
• Add cream cheese and mozzarella cheese and stir until melted and well combined. You can add an extra splash of chicken broth if needed to get everything to mix well.
• Add thawed peas and shredded chicken and stir to combine. Turn off heat, cover and let sit for a few minutes.
• Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Serve with fresh chopped parsley and Parmesan cheese (if using).
