Yield 4 serving

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound fresh spinach fettuccine, cooked
6 large Spanish onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon butter
3 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon thyme, chopped
Additional water or vegetable stock

Steps:

  • Melt butter and oil in a large saute pan and add onions. Cook covered over gentle heat for 40 minutes to one hour, until the onions are a deep golden brown. You may need to add water or stock to prevent the onions from burning. Stir in the fresh thyme, and toss with the pasta. Serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. Fresh lemon thyme will give your dish the best flavor. If you can't find fresh lemon thyme, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried lemon thyme.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different cheeses. The recipe calls for Parmesan cheese, but you could also use Asiago, Romano, or Gruyère.
  • Cook the pasta al dente. This means that it should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken. If you do, the chicken will steam instead of brown.
  • Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out the flavor of the chicken.
  • Add the lemon zest and juice at the end of cooking. This will help to preserve their flavor.
  • Serve the dish immediately. This will ensure that the pasta is hot and the chicken is juicy.

Conclusion:

Lemon thyme fettuccine is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of lemon, thyme, and chicken is simply irresistible. If you are looking for a new pasta dish to try, I highly recommend this one.
