Cooking level
Instruction mode
Safe temp: Poultry
165°F · Use a food thermometer
1. Cook the pasta
Boil the pasta until al dente, then drain.
Al dente means the pasta should be tender with a slight bite in the center.
2. Cook the chicken
Season and cook the chicken in butter until done, then remove and slice.
Poultry: 165°F. Use a food thermometer and check the center of the thickest piece without touching bone.
3. Cook the aromatics
Cook the mushrooms and garlic in the same pan until softened.
Softened vegetables should look glossy and give way easily when you stir them.
4. Make the sauce
Add heavy cream and parmesan, then stir until the sauce is smooth.
Keep the heat gentle and stir steadily so the sauce stays smooth instead of splitting.
5. Bring it together
Return the chicken to the pan, add the pasta, and toss to coat before serving.
