Recipe By: Jess Larson @playswellwithbutter

Ingredients

  • 1 (8.8-ounce) bag DeLallo Egg Pappardelle
  • 3–4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
  • 1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Kosher salt and ground black pepper
  • 3 medium carrots, diced
  • 3 stalks celery, diced
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 6 cloves garlic, finely chopped or grated
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2–3 cups chicken stock
  • 3–4 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 10–12 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 2 sprigs fresh sage
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup DeLallo Parmigiano Reggiano

Directions

  • Prep: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, generously season the water with salt.
  • Meanwhile, brown the chicken: Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet (with a tight-fitting lid) over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt and ground black pepper as desired. Place the chicken in the skillet and cook 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Cook the aromatics: If needed, melt another 1-2 tablespoons butter in the same skillet. Add the carrots, celery, and onion, seasoning with a hefty pinch of kosher salt and ground black pepper. Cook 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook 1-2 minutes longer, until fragrant.
  • Deglaze: Reduce the heat to medium-low. Sprinkle the flour over the veggies and stir to combine. Cook 1-2 minutes, until golden brown. Slowly pour in the chicken stock while scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan—that’s where all the flavor is!
  • Simmer: Tie the rosemary, thyme, and sage with kitchen twine (or finely chop if you don’t have twine) and add to the skillet with the browned chicken. Partially cover and simmer 12-15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Boil the pappardelle: Once the chicken is done, drop the pasta into the boiling water and cook to al dente according to package directions. Carefully dip a liquid measuring cup into the pot to reserve about 1 cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain the pasta (do not rinse)
  • Finish the creamy chicken sauce: Remove and discard the herb bundle. Shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces using two forks (or toss it in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment for ease!). Return the shredded chicken to the skillet with the peas and cream. Stir to combine and simmer 1-2 minutes to bring everything together.
  • Toss the creamy chicken pasta: Add cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat. The creamy chicken sauce should evenly coat the pasta, so adjust as needed: add in a splash of reserved pasta water to loosen it up or tighten it with a handful of parmesan. Cook over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, allowing the pasta to meld with and absorb some of the creamy chicken sauce.
  • Serve: Portion the creamy chicken pasta into individual bowls, topping with additional grated parmesan and chopped fresh herbs as desired. Serve immediately.
