Step 1

• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Trim and quarter mushrooms (skip if your mushrooms are pre-sliced!). Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Dice tomato.

Step 2

• Melt 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add panko; cook, stirring, until golden and toasted, 2-3 minutes. • Stir in half the garlic powder (you’ll use the rest later). Cook until just fragrant, 30 seconds. Season with salt and pepper. Turn off heat; transfer to a small bowl. Wipe out pan. Pat chicken or organic chicken dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for panko over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm. Wipe out pan.

Step 3

• Add penne to pot of boiling water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 9-11 minutes. Drain.

Step 4

• While pasta cooks, heat a large drizzle of olive oil in same pan over medium-high heat. Stir in mushrooms and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and tender, 5-7 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Use pan used for chicken here.

Step 5

• Stir scallion whites, remaining garlic powder, and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) into pan with mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds. • Stir in stock concentrate, cream cheese, half the Parmesan (save the rest for serving), and 1⁄3 cup water (1/2 cup for 4). Cook, stirring, until combined and creamy, 2-3 minutes. Turn off heat. • Stir in tomato, another 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4), and truffle zest to taste. Season with salt and pepper. Slice chicken or organic chicken crosswise; stir into sauce along with tomato.

Step 6

• Stir drained penne into pan with sauce until thoroughly coated, adding water a splash at a time until sauce reaches a creamy consistency. • Divide between bowls; top with scallion greens and remaining Parmesan. Sprinkle with as much garlicky panko as you like and serve. Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
