Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make pasta with mushrooms and chicken in creamy sauce? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. Choose champignons that are white, without dark spots and without damage. Pasta can be used in any shape. Read more about pasta in the article below the steps. I like to use drumstick fillet as chicken fillet — it is not as dry as, for example, breast fillet. Use cream of any fat content.

Step 2

Step 2
Peel the onion, rinse in cold water and finely chop. Rinse and dry the chicken meat. Then cut into small pieces of approximately the same size.

Step 3

Step 3
Rinse the champignons in running water to remove dirt. Then dry them on a paper towel. Cut the washed champignons into pieces.

Step 4

Step 4
For frying, take a comfortable, deep frying pan. Heat it until hot and pour in a little vegetable oil. Place the chopped chicken in a hot frying pan and fry, stirring, for 4-5 minutes. The articles at the end of this recipe will help you with choosing a frying pan and oil for frying.

Step 5
Then add chopped onions and mushrooms to the pan with the chicken. Fry everything together for another 2-3 minutes. Then reduce the heat and cover the pan with a lid.

Step 6

Step 6
Cook everything, covered, over low heat for 15 minutes. During this time, the chicken will be completely cooked, and the mushrooms will be fried and reduced in size.

Step 7

Step 7
Add cream to the pan. In a separate glass, stir the flour with cold water and pour it into the frying pan. Add chopped garlic, salt and a little spice. Add some grated cheese. Mix everything and bring to a boil. When heated, the cream sauce will thicken and the cheese will melt. Read about the intricacies of adding cream in the article below the steps.

Step 8

Step 8
While the chicken and mushrooms are frying, in parallel, boil the pasta according to the instructions on the package. Then place them in a colander to drain excess liquid.
