Ingredients
- 3 tbsp. butter
- ½ lb. cremini mushrooms

- 3 tbsp. all-purpose flour
- 1½ c. low-sodium chicken broth

- ½ lb. cooked farfalle
- 1 (10-oz.) bag frozen green beans, thawed

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350. Preheat a large (12-inch) nonstick T-fal skillet over medium until the Thermo-Spot turns solid red. Melt the butter in the preheated skillet and add the mushrooms, onion, and garlic. Cook, stirring until softened, about 6 minutes.

- Remove the sauce from the heat and stir 2 cups of the cheddar cheese into the sauce until melted. Season with salt and pepper.
- Stir the cooked pasta, green beans, and chicken into the cheese sauce. Top with remaining cup of cheese.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until cheese is bubbly, about 5 minutes. Top with fried onions and serve.
