PERFECT PASTA
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Cook the pasta until al dente, 8-10 minutes. Drain, reserving a cup of pasta water, and toss through a drizzle of olive oil.
SEARED CHICKEN
While the pasta is boiling, place a pan (that has a lid) over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the chicken on one side until golden, 2-4 minutes. Flip, cover with the lid, and fry until cooked through, 2-4 minutes. During the final 1-2 minutes, baste the chicken with a knob of butter. Remove from the pan and rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning. Cover to keep warm.
WHILE THE CHICKEN IS COOKING…
Return the pot to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the quartered mushrooms until golden, 4-5 minutes. Remove from the pot and set aside.
CREAMY PAPRI SAUCE
Return the pot to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the grated garlic, the tomato paste, and the wine. Cook until almost all evaporated, 1-2 minutes. Add 20g of butter and the flour. Fry for 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Remove from the heat and gradually stir in the cream, making sure there are no lumps. Loosen the sauce with the reserved pasta water until the desired consistency.
WHEN IT ALL COMES TOGETHER
Return the pot with the sauce to a medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Stir through the paprika, the lemon juice (to taste), the cooked pasta, the cooked mushrooms, ½ the grated cheese, ½ the chopped parsley, a sweetener of choice (to taste), and seasoning.
PLATE IT UP
Plate up the creamy paprika pasta and sprinkle over the remaining cheese. Top with the chicken slices and garnish with the remaining parsley. Indulge yourself, Chef!
