Creamy chive and onion spread elevates pasta with chicken, mushrooms, and asparagus in a delectable white sauce.
Ingredients:
  • 4 cups uncooked bow-tie (farfalle) pasta (8 oz)
  • 8 oz fresh asparagus, cut into 1-inch pieces, or 1 box (9 oz) frozen asparagus cuts
  • 1 package (8 oz) sliced fresh mushrooms (3 cups)
  • 1 container (8 oz) chive-and-onion cream cheese spread
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/2 lb deli rotisserie chicken (from 2- to 2 1/2-lb chicken), cut into bite-size strips (2 cups)
  • Additional grated Parmesan cheese, if desired
Instructions:
  • Prepare the pasta according to package instructions, and during the last 5 minutes of cooking, add the fresh asparagus and mushrooms. Once done, drain the pasta and veggies, and return them back to the saucepan.
  • Combine cream cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, and milk in a small bowl until velvety. Mix in the cheese mixture and chicken with the pasta.
  • Cook the pasta with the sauce over medium heat for about 2 minutes until everything is heated through and the pasta is well coated. Serve with a sprinkle of extra Parmesan cheese on top.
