Oyster Mushroom, Tomato & Chicken White Wine Pasta - Date Night Pasta

Brittany Piscatella
This mouth-watering creation is nutrient-dense and straightforward, which we love. Packed with oyster mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, and chicken, it leaves you satiated and content. The umami from the mushrooms pairs perfectly with the sweetness of roasted tomatoes, and the tender chicken brings it all together for a balanced, nourishing meal. I always recommend making the pasta from scratch if you have the time and tenacity.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 Tbsp Butter
  • 2 Shallots - Finely chopped
  • 3 Cloves of garlic - Minced
  • Fresh oyster mushrooms about 3.5-ounce (100g). I used a package of oyster mushrooms from Trader Joe's.
  • Cherry Tomatoes 2 handfuls - Cut in 4ths
  • 1 Cup of dry white wine or sparkling dry white
  • 1/2 Cup of bone broth or whatever broth you have on hand
  • 1/2 Lb of chicken - I chose chicken thighs but you can also use breasts
  • 1/2 Cup of freshly grated Parmesan
  • A handful of fresh basil pulled apart by hand
  • Pasta enough for two people
  • Fresh Ground Pepper
  • A pinch of salt more to add to taste

Instructions
 

  • First, you are going to slice your oyster mushrooms pretty thin. Then add a bit of olive oil to your pan.
  • Sauté the mushrooms until they become golden on both sides. Remove from the pan to a bowl and set aside.
  • Now you are going to add the olive oil and butter to the same pan and add your chopped shallots, and cook them down for 2 minutes, followed by the minced garlic. Cook those down until aromatic.
  • Add your cherry tomatoes, followed by your wine and broth.
  • Time to add your sliced chicken, followed by the oysters back in. Stir.
  • Close the lid and allow to cook on low for about 15 minutes. (You can check the inner temp of your chicken depending on how thick you cut them, but they should be ready after 15 minutes.)
  • While it is cooking, it is a good time to start cooking the pasta. Bring a pot of water with salt to a boil. Add the pasta and cook for the time allotted on the box!
  • Add your 1/2 cup of Parmesan and a handful of basil.
  • Give that a good stir and make sure the parmesan is all cooked in and then you are ready to plate.
  • Add pasta to a plate and top with the sauce. Sprinkle fresh Parmesan and basil on top and ENJOY!!!!
