 250 Paris mushrooms
 1 Onion

Prepare the chicken mushroom sauce. Gather all the ingredients. Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips. Clean the mushrooms and slice them. Peel and chop the onion and garlic cloves. Chop the parsley. Heat a large skillet with 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for about twelve minutes, until it is cooked and golden. Season with salt and pepper. Remove to a plate. In the skillet, add another 2 tablespoons of oil and the mushrooms. Cook for 5 minutes, then add the onion and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring. Lower the heat a bit. Add pasta water, garlic, paprika, herbs, salt, and pepper. Mix and bring to a boil. Add the cream, parmesan, mix, and cook for one minute, allowing the parmesan to melt. Add the chicken and continue cooking for another 2 minutes, so the sauce thickens a bit.
