Ingredients
Chicken
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 teaspoons dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
Pasta
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 yellow onion, sliced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 3 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 9 ounces pappardelle pasta
- 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
1. Season the chicken. Add chicken to a bowl, along with paprika, garlic and onion powder, oregano, parsley, thyme and salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
2. Cook the chicken. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat up olive oil. Add seasoned chicken to pan. Cook until chicken is cooked through, then remove to a plate.
3. In the same pan, add olive oil over medium heat. Once heated, add garlic and onion. Cook, stirring frequently, until onion is softened, roughly 4 minutes. Add paprika, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper and chicken broth. Add pasta and bring mixture to a boil. Boil according to package directions until the pasta is al dente. If the chicken broth is getting low, add a touch more.
4. Once the pasta is al dente, turn off the heat and add in the heavy cream, cooked chicken, parmesan cheese and fresh parsley. Stir to combine.
5. Serve and enjoy!
