Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces fettuccine
Olive oil, for tossing
12 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast (about 2)
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 cups heavy cream
2 pinches freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt generously. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente (tender but still slightly firm). Drain and toss with a splash of oil.
  • Meanwhile, slice the chicken into 1/4-inch-thick strips, and lay them on a plate or a sheet of waxed paper. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high and add the chicken in 1 layer. Cook, without moving the pieces, until the underside has browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the pieces, and cook until browned and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer the chicken to a medium bowl.
  • Reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining 6 tablespoons butter. Scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. When the butter has mostly melted, whisk in the cream and nutmeg and bring to a simmer, then cook for 2 minutes. Lower the heat to keep the sauce just warm.
  • Whisk the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce. Add the chicken and cooked pasta and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot in heated bowls.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. This is especially true for the chicken and vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooking will make it dry and tough.
  • Use a good quality Alfredo sauce: There are many different Alfredo sauces available in stores, but not all of them are created equal. Look for a sauce that is made with real cream and cheese.
  • Add some vegetables to the dish: Vegetables add flavor, color, and nutrients to the dish. Try adding broccoli, spinach, or mushrooms.
  • Serve the dish immediately: Fettuccine Alfredo is best served immediately after it is made. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if you let it sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With a few simple tips, you can make a restaurant-quality Alfredo sauce at home. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
