Creamy Chicken Pot Pie Pasta

A delightful twist on a classic dish.

Ingredients
  

8 oz (about 225g) pasta (penne or fusilli work well)

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced

1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 cups chicken broth

1 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

1/2 teaspoon black pepper (adjust to taste)

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Sauté Aromatics: In the same pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

      Make the Sauce: Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed onion and garlic, stirring to combine. Slowly pour in the chicken broth while whisking to avoid lumps. Stir frequently until the mixture thickens, about 2-3 minutes.

        Add Cream and Spices: Pour in the heavy cream and add the thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and let it simmer for 5 minutes.

          Combine Ingredients: Add the shredded chicken and frozen mixed vegetables to the sauce, stirring to coat everything in the creamy mixture. Bring to a gentle boil and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are heated through.

            Finish the Dish: Reduce the heat to low and stir the cooked pasta into the sauce. Mix until all the pasta is well coated. Add the grated parmesan cheese and stir until melted and creamy.

              Serve: Remove from heat and transfer to serving bowls. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a touch of color and freshness.
