  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Quarter mushrooms.

    Peel and mince shallot.

    Mince garlic.

    Zest and halve lemon.

    Pat chicken breasts dry, and season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper.

  2. 2

    Make Scallopine and Cook Pasta

    On a separate cutting board, cover chicken breasts with plastic wrap. Using a heavy object, gently pound to a uniform thickness of 1/2".

    Add pasta to boiling water and cook until al dente, 3-5 minutes.

    Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water and drain in a wire-mesh strainer.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 Tbsp. olive oil.

    Add chicken breasts to hot pan and cook undisturbed until browned, 5-6 minutes.

    Flip, and cook until chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 4-5 minutes.

    Remove chicken to a plate. Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.

  4. 4

    Start the Shallot-Mushroom Cream

    Return pan used to cook chicken to medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add mushrooms to hot pan and cook 1 minute.

    Stir in shallot and garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds.

    Add white wine, squeeze juice of half the lemon over pan, and cook until liquid is mostly reduced, 1-2 minutes.

    Add cream and reserved pasta water to sauce. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until sauce is reduced by half, 4-6 minutes.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish

    Remove sauce from burner and stir in half the Parmesan (reserve remaining for garnish). Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

    Toss pasta with sauce.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, with remaining Parmesan, lemon zest, and a squeeze of remaining lemon, if desired. Bon appétit!
