Ingredients
- 200 g organic or free-range chicken
- 300 g raw penne pasta
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 scoop of no-sugar-added vanilla whey (the taste is very light and goes very well in the recipe)
- 200 ml whole milk
- 50 g grated Comté or Beaufort cheese
- 4 fresh button mushrooms
- Freshly chopped parsley or basil
- 15 g oil for cooking
- Salt and pepper to taste
Steps to follow

Pour the oil into a saucepan and sauté the onion until golden. Stir in the chopped garlic and sliced mushrooms to brown thoroughly.
Boil pasta according to package instructions.
Step 2
Cook the chicken, cut into small pieces.
On the other hand, mix the milk and whey in a shaker. Pour the mixture into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Stir continuously to prevent burning.
Step 3

Step 4
