Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 30 mins
Total Time: 50 mins
Servings: 4
Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 (8 ounce) package penne pasta
  2. 2 tablespoons butter
  3. 1 shallot, minced
  4. 1 cup sliced baby portabella mushrooms
  5. 1 cup bite-sized pieces fresh asparagus
  6. ¼ cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
  7. 1 cup chicken broth
  8. 1 cup Marsala wine
  9. 1 (3 pound) rotisserie chicken, bones removed and meat cut into bite-size pieces
  10. 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
  11. 1 tablespoon softened butter
  12. 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  13. ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (Optional)

Instructions

  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.

This was tasty and my husband loved it. I will definitely make it again, but I will add more asparagus.

Left out the sundried tomatoes. Sauteed strips of white meat chicken breast in a separate pan until cooked thru and used that. We don’t like dark meat. Was very good!
Brett Chase
I used boneless chicken breasts that I sautéed ahead of time then made the sauce in the same pan. It’s great!
Megan Walker
Great recipe!!! A little prep work but fairly easy to make.
Tony Phillips
This is a dish my husband did he would eat every day. I didn’t use asparagus and doubled the mushrooms…amazing!!
Jessica Mcdonald
Delicious and easy! Especially loved the sun dried tomatoes. I made it gluten free by using gluten-free pasta and xanthan gum for thickening the sauce. My teenage sons gobbled it up without complaints.
Rhonda Rogers
