For a vegetarian option, substitute the chicken with chickpeas or roasted vegetables like cauliflower or butternut squash. Adjust the amount of curry powder to your preference. Start with 2 tablespoons for a milder flavor and add more to taste. A splash of lemon juice at the end can brighten up the sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro for added flavor and visual appeal.

Follow The Directions
01
StepBring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Add the penne pasta and cook according to package directions, until al dente (approximately 10-12 minutes). Drain well, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water.
02
StepIn a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and butter together over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion, sliced mushrooms, and diced bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are softened and lightly browned, about 8-10 minutes.
03
StepStir in the minced garlic, maple syrup, and sugar. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is slightly reduced and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.
04
StepAdd the cooked chicken, heavy cream, and curry powder to the skillet. Stir well to combine. Simmer gently until the sauce has thickened slightly and the chicken is heated through, about 5-7 minutes. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a little of the reserved pasta water to reach desired consistency.
05
StepPour the maple curry sauce over the drained penne pasta and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately.

May 17, 2025The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, so I reduced the maple syrup to 1/3 cup. Perfect!
