I use a deli-roasted chicken from our local grocery store to speed up prep time on this dish. You can change the vegetables to suit your tastes. Serve with a loaf of crusty french bread and a glass of wine.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 (8 ounce) package penne pasta

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 1 shallot, minced

  • 1 cup sliced baby portabella mushrooms

  • 1 cup bite-sized pieces fresh asparagus

  • ¼ cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes

  • 1 cup chicken broth

  • 1 cup Marsala wine

  • 1 (3 pound) rotisserie chicken, bones removed and meat cut into bite-size pieces

  • 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

  • 1 tablespoon softened butter

  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (Optional)

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook penne pasta at a boil until cooked through yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain.

  2. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir shallot in melted butter until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Stir mushrooms, asparagus, and sun-dried tomatoes into shallot and butter mixture; cook and stir until asparagus begins to soften, about 10 minutes more.

  3. Pour chicken broth and Marsala wine into the skillet; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and stir chicken and cream into mixture.

  4. Mix softened butter and flour into a paste in a bowl; stir into chicken mixture. Cook, stirring continually, until the flour is cooked and the liquid thickens, 1 to 2 minutes; ladle over the cooked penne pasta and top with Parmesan cheese to serve.
