Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo Recipe - Easy Dinner
Hi everyone, its Natasha of Natashaskitchen.com. Today I'm sharing my mom's recipe
for chicken fettuccine Alfredo. It's socreamy and good and actually doesn't
have any cream in it. It's an easy dinneridea and we have loved it for years.
Start by cooking 12 ounces of fettuccinepasta in a large pot of salted water
according to the package instructions.
Once the noodles are al dente orslightly firm to the bite, you can drain
them and set them aside. Usually whilethe pasta is cooking, I'll prep the rest of
the ingredients so that the noodles andthe sauce are done about the same time.
Thickly slice 1 pound of white mushrooms.The mushrooms give the sauce great
flavor. Finely chop 1 small onion andthe finer you chop, the easier they'll
disappear into the sauce.
Now mince three large garlic cloves anddo not skip the garlic, it makes the
sauce taste gourmet.
Sliced two pounds of chicken breastsinto strips and if your chicken breasts
are very large like these, where you cancut them in half first horizontally.
Don't walk here baby, I'm making movie.Yes... Season the chicken all over with
salt and pepper. Place a large, very deeppan or Dutch oven would work, over
medium-high heat and add two tablespoonsof oil. Once the oil is hot, add the
chicken and saute stirring occasionallyfor about 5 minutes or just until cooked
through. Remove the chicken from the panand set it aside. In the same pan, over
medium-high heat, add 1 Tbsp of oil in aTbsp of butter, then saute the
onion for about 3 minutes or until soft.Add the sliced mushrooms and saute,
stirring occasionally for 5 to 7 minutesor until the liquid is evaporated and
the mushrooms are lightly browned. Addthe minced garlic and stir for 30
seconds for it to become fragrant, thenadd 3 and 1/2 cups of half-and-half.
Bring that to a light boil and let itcook for about 6 to 10 minutes or until
it's barely beginning to thicken. Add thecooked chicken back to the pan, along
with 1/4 cup of freshly chopped parsleyand season to taste. I typically add
between 1/2 and 1 teaspoon of sea saltand 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Now add
the cooked and drained pasta back to thepan and stir everything together.
Cover with the lid and let it rest forat least ten minutes or until the sauce
coats the noodles. Okay, I cannot wait!It's been resting for about 10 to 12
minutes and it's ready to enjoy. Alrightand we're gonna give it a quick toss. So
letting the pasta rest this way allowsit to absorb the sauce and it thickens
slightly as it cools and oh... look at howcreamy this is! YUM! Okay, here we go.
We are going to serve and it's thelighter Alfredo sauce, because it doesn't
use the heavy cream but it still hasthat luscious creaminess to it. It is
amazing. Alright and big portions for me,because I have been waiting for this.
Okay and then just a little bit ofparsley. Add some pretty pop of color.
Okay and we're going in for the twirl.Alright, let me know how you twirl your
pasta. If you just do it right in theplate or do you use a spoon and do it
fancy style. Whoa..., that's a big bite. But Ican handle that, okay.
Hmmm... That's delicious!I love the flavor that half-and-half
gives the sauce. It's just, it tastes likesomething out of a fancy restaurant and
that's actually where this recipe comesfrom. My mom went to culinary school and
this is the dish that she cooked in therestaurant she trained in. This pasta is
so simple but it's loaded with flavor.You can taste the onion, little bits of
garlic in there, the fresh parsley andthen the mushrooms give the sauce a
really good flavor so do not skip those.I hope this becomes a new favorite for
