3 large boneless skinless chicken breasts, cooked and diced
1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced
2 Tbsp butter
3 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
1/2 c flour
1 1/2 c milk
4 c chicken broth
3 Tbsp sherry (cooking sherry ok)

1 Tbsp granulated onion

7. If sauce starts to get too thick add a little more milk. Simmer another 5 minutes and add cheese and stir until completely melted.
8. Taste for seasoning and add as needed. Ladle sauce over spaghetti and sprinkle with parsley. Serve along with garlic french bread. Enjoy!

I love this pasta dish. I just saw a similar recipe in a magazine but minus a few of my inclusions. I think its the mustard that gives this the unique taste. I hope you enjoy it.

Tips for Making Creamy Chicken Mushroom Pasta:

Use fresh mushrooms. Fresh mushrooms will give your pasta a more flavorful and earthy taste. If you can't find fresh mushrooms, you can use dried mushrooms, but be sure to soak them in hot water for at least 30 minutes before using.
Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the mushrooms, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to steam rather than brown.
Use a good quality white wine. The white wine you use in this recipe will add a lot of flavor to the sauce. Be sure to use a wine that you would enjoy drinking on its own.
Let the sauce simmer. Simmering the sauce will allow the flavors to develop and deepen. Be sure to simmer the sauce for at least 15 minutes, or longer if you have time.
Use a good quality pasta. The pasta you use in this recipe will make a big difference in the final dish. Be sure to use a pasta that is made with high-quality ingredients and that has a good texture.
Garnish with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives, or basil, will add a nice pop of flavor and color to your pasta. Garnish your pasta with fresh herbs before serving.

Conclusion:

Creamy chicken mushroom pasta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a meal that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner option, give this creamy chicken mushroom pasta recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
