Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a 4-quart heavy pot or a large skillet that is equivalent or close to that size, heat oil over medium heat; add in the chicken breast and season lightly with salt and pepper; cook on all sides until just done (about 8-10 minutes, do not overcook or the chicken or it will be dry) remove to a large bowl.
  2. In the same skillet melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat; add in mushroom slices and sauté until browned (about 10-12 minutes) transfer to the bowl with the cooked chicken; set aside while cooking the pasta and preparing the sauce (or you may cover and chill for up to 24 hours).
  3. Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until just al dente (don't overcook pasta) drain but do not rinse.
  4. Place cooked pasta in a large bowl and toss with 2-3 tablespoons oil or butter to prevent sticking; set aside.
  5. For alfredo sauce; wipe the skillet clean, then melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium heat.
  6. Add in thyme, cayenne pepper and fresh garlic; stir for 2 minutes.
  7. Add in flour and stir for 1 minutes.
  8. Add in the half and half cream and whipping cream; bring to a simmer over medium heat stirring constantly.
  9. Reduce heat to low then mix in Parmesan cheese; cook stirring over low heat until heated through and bubbly.
  10. Season with seasoned salt or white salt and black pepper to taste.
  11. Add/mix in the cooked cubed chicken and mushrooms; cook stirring for about 10 minutes until heated through.
  12. Spoon the sauce over the cooked pasta and toss, then sprinkle more Parmesan on top.
  13. This sauce will thicken upon standing.
