Sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 medium carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta: Prepare pasta according to package instructions, drain, and set aside.
  2. Make the sauce: In a large skillet, heat butter and olive oil. Sauté onion, carrots, and celery until softened. Add garlic, then sprinkle flour and cook to form a roux. Slowly whisk in broth and milk until thickened. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme.
  3. Combine: Add chicken, peas, and cooked pasta to the sauce. Toss until coated.
  4. Finish: Remove from heat, stir in Parmesan and parsley. Serve hot.

Notes

  • For added richness, replace half the milk with heavy cream.
  • This dish reheats well and can be baked with a breadcrumb topping for a crispy finish.
