Ingredients
• 8 ounces linguini dried
• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into thin slices
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 8 ounces button mushrooms sliced

Instructions
• Heat pasta water and cook according to directions, while the sauce is being prepared.
• Melt butter and olive oil over medium high heat.
• Salt and pepper the chicken and add it to skillet. Brown well on one side, then turn for a total of about 7 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Remove and place in a bowl.
• Add onions and mushroom and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until onions are tender and mushrooms are starting to brown - about 3 minutes. Remove from the pan and add to the bowl with the chicken.
