Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure all of your ingredients and equipment are prepped and ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Choose the right pasta: Fettuccine is a great choice for this dish, as it is a wide, flat noodle that can hold onto the sauce well. However, you can also use other types of pasta, such as spaghetti or penne.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: Al dente means "to the tooth" in Italian, and it refers to the ideal texture for cooked pasta. Pasta should be cooked until it is still slightly firm to the bite.
  • Make sure the sauce is hot: The sauce should be hot when you add the pasta to it. This will help to prevent the pasta from becoming soggy.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil or parsley, can add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

Lemon chicken fettuccine with snow peas is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The combination of lemon, butter, and garlic creates a flavorful sauce that is perfect for coating the pasta and chicken. The snow peas add a pop of color and crunch.
