Prepare the ingredients. Start by cutting the chicken breast into small cubes, chopping the onion, slicing the garlic, and dicing the bell pepper. If using fresh mushrooms, clean and slice them. 2. Sauté the garlic. In a pot, add 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil and heat it over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until it turns slightly golden, being careful not to burn it, to avoid a bitter taste. 3. Add the onion. After the garlic has browned, add the chopped onion. Sauté until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes. 4. Add the vegetables and spices. Next, add the bell pepper and mushrooms. If using fresh mushrooms, make sure they are well-drained. Add the grated ginger, vegeta, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let it cook for 5 minutes. 5. Cook the chicken. Add the chicken breast cubes to the vegetable mixture. Stir everything, then deglaze with lemon juice. Add half a glass of water and let it simmer on low heat, covered, for about 7-10 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked. 6. Boil the pasta. In a separate pot, bring water to a boil and add salt and a little oil. Add the fettuccine and cook according to the package instructions, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Once cooked, drain and rinse with cold water. 7. Combine the ingredients. In the same pot where you boiled the pasta, add the cooking cream and half of the mozzarella. Place everything on low heat and add the drained pasta. Mix well to combine all the ingredients. Then, add the chicken and vegetable mixture, stirring gently for 2-3 minutes. 8. Transfer to the oven. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Pour the mixture into a ceramic dish or baking tray. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella on top. 9. Bake in the oven. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the mozzarella melts and turns golden. 10. Serving. After taking them out of the oven, let the pasta cool for 5 minutes. They can be served warm, with a sprinkle of fresh parsley on top for an extra touch of freshness. If you let them cool longer, they will have a firmer consistency and can be cut with a knife, like a pudding.
