You'll love this easy and tasty pasta recipe. Note: When I grill or bake boneless skinless chicken breasts, I cook 2 extra to use in this recipe. Or, you can find cooked chicken at the store. Ingredients:

4 tablespoons unsalted butter |
10 ounces fresh white mushrooms, sliced |
2 tablespoons garlic, minced (4 cloves) |

1/2 teaspoon sea salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
12 ounces broccoli florets, steamed |
