Boil the pasta in salted water until cooked, then drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper and sear it in half the butter until cooked through, then set aside.
In the same pan, melt the remaining butter and stir the garlic for 1 minute, adding the mushrooms if you like.
Add the cream and bring to a gentle simmer, then add the cheese and stir until melted.
Return the chicken, add the pasta and toss, loosening the sauce with a little pasta water if needed.
