Step 1

Boil a pot of water and add some salt, then add the pasta, and cook it for 10 minutes or until al dente. Drain off all the water and set the pasta aside, you can also toss it with some olive oil.

Step 2

Place a pan on a stove over medium-high heat, then heat half of the oil, and fry the chicken until cooked through. Remove the chicken to a plate, then add the butter to the same pan, and once melted, add in the remaining half of the oil.

Step 3

Put the mushroom and cook it until nicely browned, then push it to one side of the pan, and add in the garlic and onion. Saute them for about 2 minutes or until fragrant, then add the bell peppers, and stir fry until fork tender.

Step 4

Put the chicken back into the pan, and season it with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, paprika, and hot pepper flakes. Stir them until well combined, then pour in the broth and cream, and mix until incorporated.

Step 5

Bring it to a boil, then stir in the pasta until well coated, add the parmesan cheese, and give it a good mix. Allow it to simmer for a few minutes until thick and creamy, then garnish with parsley, and serve. Enjoy!
