Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 stalk celery, chopped
- 1 medium carrot, chopped
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Meat
- 6 chicken thighs, skinless, boneless, cut into bite size pieces
Liquids & Pantry
- 1 tablespoon butter (unsalted)
- ½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- ¼ teaspoon pepper (or to taste)
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or ½ teaspoon dried rosemary)
- ½ cup white wine
- 4 cups chicken broth (low sodium or no sodium added)
- 12 ounces pasta (uncooked)
Instructions
- Sauté Vegetables: In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, celery, and carrot. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables soften, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Cook Chicken: Add the bite-sized chicken thighs to the pot. Season everything with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink and begins to brown slightly.
- Create Sauce Base: Sprinkle the flour over the chicken and vegetables and stir well to combine. Cook for one minute to remove the raw flour taste. Add the chopped rosemary, white wine, chicken broth, and uncooked pasta. Stir thoroughly to combine and ensure the pasta is submerged. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Simmer Pasta and Chicken: Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and help the pasta cook evenly.
- Add Peas and Finish Cooking: Stir in the frozen peas. Continue cooking for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until the pasta is cooked to your desired tenderness and the sauce has thickened to a creamy consistency.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with fresh chopped parsley, and serve hot for a comforting one-pot meal.
Notes
- This dish replicates the cozy flavors of a chicken pot pie but with the convenience of one-pot pasta cooking.
- Using boneless, skinless chicken thighs keeps the chicken tender and juicy while cooking evenly.
- Adjust the seasoning towards the end of cooking to suit your taste preferences.
- You can substitute the white wine with additional chicken broth if preferred.
- Ensure to stir occasionally while cooking to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
