Equipment (affiliate links)

  • Large pot
  • large pan
  • Plate

Ingredients

  • 450 g chicken breast mini filet / 1 lbs
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1/2 white onion chopped
  • 300 g chestnut mushrooms / 3 cups sliced
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 125 ml Marsala wine / 1/2 cup
  • 250 ml chicken stock / 1 cup
  • 250 ml single / light cream / 1 cup
  • 250 g fettuccine / tagliatelle / 8 oz
  • Flat leaf parsley
  • Grated Parmesan cheese to serve

Instructions

  • Sprinkle bite-sized chicken breast pieces with salt and pepper on both sides and fry in 1 tbsp of olive oil until golden over medium-high heat for approximately 5 minutes. Do not over cook as the chicken breasts will be quite small and will cook fast. Remove to a separate plate and set aside.
  • Set a pot of water to boil. Once boiled add a pinch of salt and pasta. Cook according to package instructions.
  • In the same pan, where you cooked chicken, heat another tablespoon of olive oil, then add sliced mushrooms, salt and pepper and saute for 5 minutes over medium heat, then push them to a side and add the chopped onions. Cook them over low heat for 2-3 minutes, then add 2 tbsp of flour, stir and cook for a minute longer, then add the marsala wine and turn the heat up to medium, add chicken stock and bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and return the chicken to the pan. Pour in the cream and let it heat through in the sauce, simmer for a few minutes to allow the sauce to thicken to a desired consistency.
  • Drain the pasta once cooked and add directly to the sauce with the chicken, toss to coat. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese.
