Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz pasta (any shape, rotini or penne)
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (frozen peas, carrots, corn)
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add your pasta and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour to create a roux, stirring for 2-3 minutes until golden.
  3. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, cooking for about 5 minutes until thickened.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream, thyme, salt, and pepper, simmering for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Fold in the shredded chicken and mixed vegetables, heating through for 5-7 minutes.
  6. Add the cooked pasta and toss everything to combine. If too thick, add reserved pasta water.
  7. Scoop into bowls and garnish with fresh herbs before serving.

Notes

This dish is versatile; customize it with leftover chicken or whatever vegetables you have. Great for busy weeknights!
