5. After the cooking time is up, start cooking the pasta according to the package directions to
Al dente on the stove-top. Do not overcook!
6. Shred the chicken with 2 forks.

Note: If you have extra picky eaters and want to omit the mushrooms and onions, add an additional 1/2 cup of broth. This will replace the moisture from the mushrooms and onions.
