How to Make Chicken Florentine Pasta: 1. I love that this 6 Qt dutch oven is wide enough to fit the length of the pasta without bending noodles to squeeze them in. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large, deep pan over medium heat and add 2 Tbsp oil. Remove from pan and rest 10 minutes before slicing against the grain. In the same pan, add 1 Tbsp oil if needed along with sliced mushrooms and green onion.
Remove from pan and set aside. In the same pan, add 2 Tbsp butter, 3 Tbsp flour and pressed garlic then whisk 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in 1 cup chicken broth then 1 cup milk. 8 tsp pepper or season to taste. Add sliced chicken, sautéed mushrooms and drained pasta and toss to combine. Season with more salt and pepper to taste.
