Ingredients

  • 3/4 lb skinless chicken breasts cubed
  • 2-3 tbsp flour gluten-free if necessary
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1 24 oz jar Classico Tomato & Basil Pasta Sauce
  • 2 tbsp white wine any type
  • 1 tbsp dried parsley
  • 1 1/2 tsp basil
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • Pasta Shells or Penne or gluten-free
  • Parmesan Cheese optional or dairy-free parmesan.

Instructions

  • Place cubed chicken on a large plate and sprinkle with flour, toss chicken pieces around to lightly coat.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet. Add chicken and sauté.
  • Add onion and sauté. Add the sliced mushrooms and saute.
  • Stir in pasta sauce, wine and spices.
  • Mix well. Cover and simmer for about 15min. This is just enough time to get some water boiling and cook the pasta.
  • Serve over pasta and top with some of the parmesan cheese or dairy-free parmesan.
  • **I double or triple the recipe to ensure we have leftovers for the freezer. The gluten-free pasta I prefer for this recipe is an elbow or penne.
