Lemon Chicken Fettuccine is a delightful pasta dish featuring tender chicken slices cooked in a creamy lemon sauce, served over perfectly cooked fettuccine pasta. The vibrant lemon flavor adds a refreshing twist to this classic Italian-inspired recipe, making it a favorite for both weeknight dinners and special occasions.
Ingredients: 8 oz fettuccine pasta. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced. 2 tablespoons olive oil. 4 cloves garlic, minced. 1 cup chicken broth. 1/4 cup heavy cream. 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese. 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice. 1 tablespoon lemon zest. Salt and pepper to taste. Fresh parsley for garnish.
Instructions: Follow the directions on the package to cook fettuccine until it is al dente. Remove the water and set it aside. Warm up the olive oil in a big pan over medium-high heat. Mix in the garlic and cook until it smells good. Spread the chicken breasts out thinly and add them to the pan. Cook them until they are golden brown and fully cooked. Add heavy cream, lemon juice, and lemon zest, along with the chicken broth. Use a stir to mix. For three to four minutes, or until it gets a little thicker, simmer the mixture. Toss the cooked fettuccine pasta in the pan with the sauce until it is covered evenly. Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the pasta and mix it all together again. Add pepper and salt to taste. Before serving, sprinkle with fresh parsley.
