Delish chicken tetrazzini

This is another recipe from my Family Fun magazine. I made it two nights ago and the kids loved it! Plus it was super easy to make

Chicken Tetrazzini

2 Tbl butter
1 Tbl olive oil
1/4 c minced shallots
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into strips (I just used cooked cubed chicken that I had in the freezer)
1 1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp paprika
1 c frozen peas thawed and drained
3 Tbl flour
1 1/2 c half and half
1tsp fresh lemon juice
3/4 c grated Parmesan
4 ounces med. egg noodles (I used fettuccine noodles instead)


Melt 2 Tbl butter and 1 Tbl olive oil in pan, add shallots, mushrooms, chicken, salt, pepper and paprika. Cook until strips are cooked through, about 6 minutes. Add the defrosted peas and cook for one more minute, stirring frequently.

Sprinkle flour over the mixture and cook for about 1 minute stirring continuously. Add the half and half and lemon juice. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low. Cook for one minute more, stirring frequently.

Remove from skillet from heat, add Parmesan cheese and mix thoroughly. Add cooked noodles to the mixture, and serve!
