Creamy mascarpone chicken- the quickest, most effortless dish that will make every one happy, including you!
I love this dish so much. Just remember to marinate your chicken then air fry it.

For the veggies and the stock, use whatever you have at hand. I felt the mushroom stock worked perfectly well with the pumpkin purée I had leftover in the fridge.
The mascarpone will create magic i promise!
