Chicken Tetrazzini
- 9 white button mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 cups penne rigate
- 13 cup frozen peas
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 12 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken stock
- 23 cup 15% cream (regular milk can be used to reduce fat)
- 2 tablespoons sherry wine (optional)
- 1 pinch nutmeg
- 1 12 cups cooked diced chicken
- 14 cup grated parmesan cheese
- salt and pepper
- Before you start, make sure your chicken is cooked.
- To save time, I recommend using a store bought rotisserie chicken.
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Heat oil in pan on medium-high heat and saute mushrooms while stirring every few minutes until they are softer but still crisp.
- Boil water, add penne.
- During this time, melt butter into a casserole at low heat, add flour and make a roux.
- Cook for 4 minutes while mixing constantly.
- Add stock and simmer for a few minutes mixing until all ingredients are incorporated.
- Add cream, sherry wine, nutmeg, salt and pepper.
- Drain pasta, add frozen pea and sauce.
- Mix.
- Add mushrooms and chicken.
- Mix well and transfer to baking dish.
- Sprinkle cheese and bake 25 minutes until crust is colored.
- Note: I personally double the sauce when I make this recipe.
