Channel: Cliff Hulcoop Official
Date: 24/11/2022

I eat what is described as "Penne With Chicken and Mushrooms" from a recipe book of Italian food. It does also contain other ingredients as well such as tomatoes and cream.

Ingredients:
30g butter (I guessed an amount of margarine)
1 tablespoon olive oil (I guessed)
1 onion, sliced
1 clove garlic crushed (I did not use this)
60g prosciutto, chopped (I used 3 slices prosciutto crudo)
250g chicken thigh fillets (I used approximately  half of a  450g carton)
125g mushrooms (I used approx half of a 250g carton of chestnut mushrooms)
1 tomato, peeled, halved and sliced (I used 2 smaller (but not cherry) ones and did not peel or halve them)
1 tablespoon tomato paste (I used a tube of "Tomato Puree With Garlic" (the garlic was mixed into the paste professionally)
125g white wine
250ml cream (I used approx 150ml)
500g penne (I guessed and had much less)
freshly grated parmesan for serving (I used pecorino)
Salt
Pepper (I used black pepper but I think you are supposed to use white)

These are the exact items I used. I often bought things not because they were the best or even what I would recommend. Sometimes I got them in a sale at a reduced price (e.g. the wine) or they just happened to be from a supermarket I was near at the time.
Farmfoods is the name of a national food supermarket here. It does not mean I bought it directly from a farm.
