Method

Cooking Pasta

  1. 1

    Boil the Pasta

    In a large pot, fill with water and bring it to a boil. Add 1 tsp of salt.

  2. 2

    Cook the Trotolle

    Add the trotolle pasta to the boiling water. Cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes.

    Drain and Set Aside

    Once cooked, drain the pasta and set it aside, reserving a cup of pasta water.

Preparing Chicken and Mushrooms

    While the pasta is cooking, season the chicken breast with salt and black pepper.

  2. 5

    Cook Chicken

    In a skillet, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken breast and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove from skillet and let it rest.

  3. 6

    Sauté Mushrooms

    In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil and the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, then add the local mushrooms. Cook for another 5-6 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.

    In a small bowl, combine the truffle oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until well mixed.

    In the skillet with the mushrooms, add the cooked trotolle pasta and sliced chicken. Toss everything together, adding reserved pasta water as needed to create a light sauce.
