CHICKEN FETTUCCINE ALFREDO



Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo image

Classic and easy to make, this version of Alfredo doesn't use flour to thicken the sauce. Instead, it relies on a slight simmer and a heavy dose of cheese.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

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.

CAJUN CHICKEN ALFREDO



Cajun Chicken Alfredo image

This is from Guy's Big Bite, on Food TV. It comes out great, and is similar to the cajun alfredo at Copeland's restaurant, which is now defunct in our area. I used Tony Chachere's creole seasoning because I had it on hand, and cooked the chicken on the grill. I didn't use a cup of seasoning, just sprinked the chicken with less than a tablespoon, and let it set for about a half hour. I used pinot grigio for the wine. I added a pat of butter to the olive oil, and cut back on the garlic, tomatoes, and cream (personal taste). It came out nicely spiced, not too hot. If your finished dish is not spicy enough, just add a few dashes of tabasco sauce. I dumped the chicken and pasta into the pan, and heated it all together before serving.
