Greek Penne Chicken and Pasta

This is a different kind of dinner, but packed with flavor and definitely delicious! Not extremely healthy, so don't eat this every evening, even though you'll want to. :) 

Ingredients:

-1 (16 oz) package penne pasts

-1 1/2 T. butter

-1 cup chopped mushrooms

-1/2 cup chopped onion

-2 cloves garlic, minced

-1 can artichoke hearts (marinated tastes much better!)

-1 can (6 oz) tomato paste or one can of diced tomatoes

-1/2 cup to 1 cup feta cheese

-Parsley, oregano, and pepper, to taste

-2 T. lemon juice, or more depending on your taste preferences

Directions:

Cook and drain penne pasta. 

In large skillet, heat butter/olive oil and add onion and garlic to skillet. Add chicken and cook until golden brown. 

Drain and chop artichoke hearts. Add artichokes, tomatoes, half of the feta cheese, lemon juice, spices, and mushrooms to pan. Add pasta, mix, add mozzarella cheese or rest of feta cheese on top.
