Just made it up tonight, and it's all gone now, so I thought I'd post it!
Ingredients:
1 boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon shallot, minced
3 ounces wild mushrooms, chopped
0.5 (7 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1/2 teaspoon sugar
4 ounces penne, cooked
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated
Directions:
1. Mix the chicken in a bowl with the oregano, basil, salt, and pepper.
2. Sauté in the olive oil over medium-high heat until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
3. Melt the butter in the same pan and sauté the shallot until translucent, then add the mushrooms and sauté for a few minutes.
4. Reduce heat to medium-low and add the tomatoes, sugar, and penne, stirring well.
5. Cook the mixture down for a few minutes, then add the mozzarella and 1 tablespoon of the parmesan and stir.
6. Correct the seasoning (salt and pepper) to taste, and serve topped with remaining parmesan.
