2 C. uncooked medium egg noodles

Cooking spray

1 lb. skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into bite-size pieces

1 t. olive oil

1/2 C. chopped shallots

8 oz. package presliced mushrooms

1/2 C. dry white wine

Heat oil in pan over medium-high heat. Add shallots; saute 1 minute. Add mushrooms; saute 4 minutes. Add wine, and cook for 3 minutes, or until liquid almost evaporates.

Combine milk and flour in a small bowl; stir well with a whisk. Add milk mixture to pan; cook 3 minutes or until slightly thick. Add chicken, cheese, 2 T. parsley, and pepper; reduce heat, and simmer for 3 minutes or until thoroughly heated.

Serve over pasta; sprinkle with parsley, if desired.
