Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces of pasta (penne or fusilli)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, and green beans)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. Sauté the onion in a large skillet with olive oil over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until translucent.
  3. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  4. Brown the chicken pieces in the skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper, and cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  5. Introduce the mixed vegetables and stir to combine, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until tender.
  6. Season with dried thyme and rosemary, stirring well to infuse flavor.
  7. Dust the flour over the mixture, stirring continuously for 1-2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.
  8. Add the chicken broth slowly while stirring to avoid lumps, allowing the mixture to come to a simmer.
  9. Create the creamy base by reducing heat to low and stirring in the heavy cream, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce.
  10. Combine the cooked pasta and shredded cheddar cheese together in the skillet, tossing until the cheese is melted and the pasta is well-coated.
  11. Final seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  12. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
