Skinny Chicken Fettuccine With Alfredo Sauce Recipes

SKINNY CHICKEN FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to the package directions in a large pot of boiling water. Drain.
• There are a few options for cooking the chicken.
• You can grill it for 6-8 minutes per side, pan fry it over medium heat for 6-8 minutes per side (use a bit of olive oil in the pan), or bake it at 375 degrees F for 20-30 minutes.
• The exact cook time will really depend on the thickness of your chicken so using a meat thermometer to judge when it's done (165 degrees F at the thickest part of the breast) is the best bet for perfectly cooked chicken.
• Another hands off option for cooked chicken is to make it earlier in the day in the slow cooker, or while you are making the pasta and Alfredo sauce in the Instant Pot.
• In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, melt the butter.
• Add the garlic and cook, stirring for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.
• Whisk in the flour, and cook, stirring constantly, until it is lightly browned, about 1 minute.
• Slowly whisk in the milk, stirring until it is incorporated and smooth.
• Add the thyme, oregano, salt, pepper, and parmesan and whisk continuously for 3-4 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
• Reduce the heat to a low simmer, stirring occasionally, until the pasta and the chicken are ready.
