Welcome back my foodie friends :) Today I come up with a new recipe. It's so delicious :)
Learn how to make the ultimate Creamy Cheesy Chicken Pasta with Shiitake Mushrooms and Fusilli! This quick and easy pasta recipe combines tender chicken, rich melting cheese, a velvety cream sauce, and the deep savory flavor of shiitake mushrooms tossed in perfectly cooked fusilli pasta. Whether you need a 20-minute weeknight dinner or a gourmet comfort food meal at home, this step-by-step pasta tutorial has you covered.
Ingredients:
1 lb (450g) Chicken breast, cut into bite-sized cubes
7 oz (200g) Fresh Shiitake mushrooms, sliced
10 oz (300g) Fusilli pasta (for 2 servings)
1 cup Heavy cream
1 cup Grated cheese (Parmesan or Mozzarella)
3 cloves Garlic, minced
2 tbsp Olive oil
Salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and chili flakes (to taste)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Boil the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fusilli until al dente according to package instructions. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water, then drain and set aside.
Slice the onion, garlic and shitake mushroom into cubes then add the onions to saute.
Sear the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken cubes with salt and pepper, paprika and dried thyme. Add to the skillet and cook until golden brown and cooked through (about 6–8 minutes).
Build the Sauce: Lower the heat and pour in the heavy cream. Bring to a gentle simmer, then gradually stir in the grated cheese until smooth and melted. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of the reserved pasta water.
Combine & Serve: Toss in the fusilli pasta. Mix thoroughly until the pasta is coated in the velvety cheese sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley and extra black pepper before serving hot.
Bon Appetite :)
