Directions
1
Grab three chicken breasts, slice them thin, and then cut them into small cubes.
2
Season the chicken well with rotisserie chicken seasoning and garlic and herb seasoning.
3
Add a couple tablespoons of corn starch to the seasoned chicken and mix it up.
4
Add a little bit of oil and about three tablespoons of butter to your skillet.
5
Once the skillet is hot, add your chicken and cook it for about six minutes total, flipping halfway through.
6
Once the chicken is golden, put it in a separate bowl and set it aside.
7
Add a few tablespoons of butter to the skillet.
8
Once the butter is melted, add a diced onion and cook until translucent.
9
Add about 16 oz of mushrooms to the skillet; add more butter if needed.
10
Towards the end of cooking the mushrooms, add a few tablespoons of minced garlic and some more seasoning.
11
Once the vegetables are cooked to your desired doneness, add 1 lb of pasta and one carton of chicken broth.
12
Once it starts boiling, cook for about 8 minutes until the noodles are cooked through and all the liquid has been absorbed.
13
Turn the heat to low and add a half of a cup of heavy cream and a half of a cup of shredded parmesan cheese.
14
Mix until everything is melted.
15
Add three heaping tablespoons of pesto (optional) and then add your cooked chicken.
