To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 8 oz. linguine pasta
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 8 oz. sliced mushrooms
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
To start, cook the linguine according to the package instructions until al dente. While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and garlic. Cook until the mushrooms are tender and the garlic is fragrant, about 3-5 minutes. Add the chicken broth to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the broth has reduced by half.
Add the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese to the skillet and stir until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth. Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Drain the linguine and add it to the skillet with the chicken and mushroom sauce. Toss everything together until the pasta is coated in the sauce. Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley, if desired.
