Quick Chicken Pot Pie Pasta: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces of pasta (penne or rotini works best)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, diced
  • 1 cup carrots, diced
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the diced carrots and celery. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until they start to soften. Add the minced garlic, thyme, and rosemary, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir well to combine. If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with a little water and add it to the pot.
  5. Add the cooked pasta to the pot, followed by the frozen peas. Stir until everything is well combined and heated through.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
  7. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • This dish is quick to prepare and perfect for busy weeknights.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables of your choice.
  • For a lighter version, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
