Our easy chicken alfredo pasta recipe is rich, creamy and the perfect antidote to hunger pangs. You're just two steps away from cheesy pasta perfection.

Provided by Elena Silcock

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tbsp olive oil
4 skinless boneless chicken thighs, cut in half
300g fettuccine, or tagliatelle
1 tbsp butter
200ml double cream
½ a nutmeg, grated
100g parmesan
parsley, chopped, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium high heat. Add the chicken thighs and fry for around 10 mins, turning half way, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Set aside to cool a little, then use two forks to shred.
  • Bring a pan of salted water to the boil and add the pasta, cook for 1 minute less that package instructions. Whilst the pasta is cooking, add the butter to the frying pan over a medium heat, scraping the bottom a little to get any of the browned bits. Tip in the cream along with the nutmeg and bring to a simmer. Add the chicken back to the pan.
  • Once the pasta is cooked, use tongs to transfer the pasta straight from the water into the frying pan with the cream mixture. Sprinkle most of the parmesan over and use the tongs to toss it all together, adding a splash of the pasta water if it looks a little stiff. Season well, then tip into bowls. Top with the remaining parmesan, a scattering of parsley, and black pepper.

Provided by Betsy Carter

Categories     Lunch

Time 55m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into ½-inch cubes
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more taste
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more as needed
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 shallots, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup all purpose flour
½ cup dry white wine, such as sauvignon blanc
7 cups low sodium chicken stock
½ lb dried fettuccine noodles, broken 1 in (2.54 cm) pieces
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup parmesan cheese, finely grated, plus more for garnish, plus 2 tablespoons
4 cups baby spinach

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, season the chicken with the salt and pepper and toss to coat.
  • In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in batches, cook the chicken, turning the pieces halfway through, until lightly browned on all sides, 5-6 minutes per batch. If the pot seems dry, add more olive oil as needed between batches. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the shallots. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the flour, stirring to coat the aromatics. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until the flour is just cooked but has not yet started to brown.
  • Pour the white wine into the pot to deglaze, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Add the chicken stock and season with salt. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Once boiling, stir in the fettuccine and cook for 7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pot or clumping together.
  • Add the chicken and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Add the Parmesan cheese, a couple tablespoons at a time, stirring well between each addition to ensure the cheese melts smoothly. Stir in the spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes, until wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The soup will thicken slightly as it cools.
  • Ladle into bowls and serve warm, garnished with more pepper and Parmesan cheese.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for fresh, free-range chicken, a creamy Alfredo sauce, and flavorful Parmesan cheese.
  • If you don't have heavy cream on hand, you can use milk instead. Just add a little more cheese to thicken the sauce.
  • To make the chicken more flavorful, marinate it in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs before cooking.
  • If you're using frozen chicken, be sure to thaw it completely before cooking. Otherwise, the chicken will not cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Otherwise, it will become dry and tough.
  • Serve the chicken Alfredo immediately over your favorite pasta. Enjoy!

Conclusion:

This easy chicken Alfredo recipe is perfect for a quick and delicious meal. With just a few simple ingredients, you can have a flavorful and creamy dish that the whole family will love. So next time you're short on time, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
