Chicken with Crème Fraîche Sauce
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 (8 ounce) package penne or other pasta of your choice
  • 1 large white onion, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 2 cups creme fraiche
  • 3 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese for topping
Instructions
1
Heat a generous amount of oil in a substantial skillet over an elevated heat setting. Introduce the chicken and cook until it develops a rich brown color. Add a glass of white wine and flavor with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Gradually decrease the heat to a low simmering point and let it cook for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and its juices flow freely.
2
Concurrently, prepare a large container of salted water by bringing it to a rolling boil. Introduce the pasta and stir occasionally until it reaches an optimal level of tenderness yet still retains a slight firmness, approximately 10 minutes; drain the excess water.
3
Separate the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces and set it aside. Reintroduce the onion and garlic to the remaining sauce in the skillet, stirring constantly until they become tender. Add the mushrooms and cook until they soften.
4
Combine the cooked chicken, crème fraîche, and sour cream in the skillet. Stir until it reaches a heated state. Serve the chicken and sauce atop the cooked pasta, sprinkling it with grated Parmesan cheese.
