As boring as pasta with chicken and mushrooms sounds, as much it is going to rock your world! 😀
The secret of this recipe is indeed the mushrooms. You can use any type if white or cremini mushrooms, but the ultimate taste for this recipe is given by the boletus mushrooms. They are not trivial to be found and not too cheap, but I could find them in every country I lived so far and they are really having something in them that just makes wonders with the taste buds. (They are sold in normal supermarkets, so I am not talking about any type of special mushrooms :P).
The rest of the recipe is simple!
