One Skillet Creamy Chicken Pasta

By

Equipment

  • Utinsel Set
  • Cutting board
  • Knives
  • Measuring spoons
  • Glass Measuring Cups

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs diced into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped carrots
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • ½ cup chopped celery
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup + 1 can milk
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ lb fettuccine pasta uncooked
  • 1 cup colby jack cheese shredded + ½ cup for topping

Instructions
 

  1. Heat olive oil in a large, deep-sided pot or very large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add chopped carrots, celery, onion, and minced garlic. Saute over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add raw chicken, salt, and pepper and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally (chicken will still be a bit pink in the middle; it will finish cooking next)
  4. Add soup, milk, broth, parsley, thyme and dry pasta. Stir well and bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 25 minutes until pasta is tender. Stir every 2-3 minutes to prevent pasta from sticking to the bottom. Low heat is important. If you notice it needs more liquid to get the pasta past the al dentate stage, add a bit of water or more chicken broth.
  6. Remove from heat, stir in 1 cup cheese, and let set for 5 minutes.
  7. Top with remaining ½ cup cheese and serve.
  8. Enjoy!
