Creamy Chicken Marsala Pasta

Ingredients:

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts; cut into bite sized pieces
12 ounces sliced mushrooms
1 small onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 cup Marsala cooking wine
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 pound dry whole wheat penne pasta
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese + more for serving
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
salt and pepper to taste
minced, chopped fresh parsley for garnish


 Cook chicken in one tablespoon of butter until thoroughly cooked
 In a large skillet add 1 tbsp on butter, garlic, onion, and mushrooms. And start cooking pasta in separate pan. When draining pasta save 1/2 cup of water.
 Cook for 15 minutes until there are hardly any juices in the pan
 Now add chicken, broth, and wine and bring to a boil and let liquid reduce by half probably about 10-15 minutes. Then add pasta and cheese and mix for one minute until pasta absorbs sauce if needed add some of the water that you saved from the pasta.
 Then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and parsley and enjoy!
 This would be my wonderful son's response to this wonderful dinner!
