Pasta with Chicken Peas & Mushrooms is a delightful meal.

So simple and so delicious, you’ll make this pasta dish in every season.  The flavors are wonderful. 

Peas, mushrooms, pieces of chicken, and white wine all add up to a combination of multiple flavors in every bite.  Heat up the leftovers the very next day for lunch is even better! 

A hearty pasta dish with a creamy sauce like this absolutely deserves a full-bodied wine to pair with, needless to say, we always enjoy a fine ruby-fruity red wine to go with it like a Chianti. 

We trust our mom …. she really knows how to whip up fabulous dishes.   

Enjoy!
