LEMON GARLIC CHICKEN OVER ANGEL HAIR PASTA



Lemon Garlic Chicken over Angel Hair Pasta image

Elegant and delicious. 2/22/09 After reading some reviews and problem of too much liquid I would suggest decreasing to perhaps 1 1/2 cups or use the pasta water which has the starch from the pasta that would provide a thickener. Also, be sure all of the flour was used to coat the chicken; that could also be a part of the problem Thanks for the all the input reviewers!

Angel Hair Pasta With Lemon, Garlic and Tomatoes image

Served with a fresh salad, I think this is a perfect summer weekday meal. It comes together very fast if you prepare all the ingredients beforehand. (note: typo in wine amount has been corrected - 1/4 cup, not 1 1/4 cup - yowza, that'd be a lot of wine!)

Provided by Primordial

Categories     European

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb angel hair pasta
1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 -8 garlic cloves, finely minced
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 1/2 cups vine-ripe tomatoes, seeded and diced medium
1 teaspoon coarse salt
fresh ground black pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta in several quarts of salted water (keep an eye on it - angel hair cooks a lot faster than other pasta and you don't want it mushy). Place it in a large serving bowl, add the basil and Parmesan cheese and toss to mix.
  • While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet and saute the garlic for a minute or so until it *just* begins to change color. Add the wine and cook until it has been reduced by about half (2-4 minutes). Stir in the lemon juice and tomatoes and remove the sauce from heat until the pasta is ready.
  • Pour lemon-tomato sauce over pasta mixture, add salt and pepper to taste and toss to mix. Serve with extra Parmesan on the side, if desired.

⅓ cup all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon paprika
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, pounded thin and cut into 2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil

¼ cup butter, divided
1 cup dry white wine
