A luxurious, creamy pasta dish paired with tender grilled chicken and a zesty touch of lemon.
Ingredients:
For the Grilled Chicken
2 boneless chicken breasts
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Garlic Cream Sauce
2 tbsp butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp black pepper
Salt to taste
For the Pasta
8 oz (225 g) fettuccine
Fresh parsley for garnish
Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken:
Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Let rest, then slice into strips.
Cook the Pasta:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain.
Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce:
In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and black pepper.
Combine the Pasta:
Toss the cooked fettuccine in the garlic cream sauce. Add a splash of reserved pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.
Assemble and Serve:
Plate the creamy pasta and top with sliced grilled chicken. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges for a zesty kick.
