CHICKEN ALFREDO WITH MUSHROOMS AND ASPARAGUS



Chicken Alfredo With Mushrooms and Asparagus image

Adapted from a Sara Moulton episode on foodnetwork.com. This very much reminds me of my favorite meal at a locally well known Italian restaurant. For the Alfredo sauce, I use recipe #64196. (Since trying this, I can't stand the store bought stuff!) I also serve with a side of recipe #251337 and garlic bread.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 cup onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram, crushed
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 lb chicken breast, cooked & chopped into bite size pieces

1/4 cup dry white wine
1 (9 ounce) package frozen asparagus cuts, do not thaw but do separate into individual pieces
16 ounces fettuccine pasta, cooked & drained according to package directions

Steps:

  • Add chicken, alfredo sauce, and wine; adjust heat so mixture bubbles gently, then cook, stirring frequently, about 3 minutes.
  • Add asparagus, cover and cook just until crisp-tender, 2-3 minutes; no longer or asparagus will become mushy.
  • Serve over hot fettuccini, with fresh grated parmesan on top.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before starting, ensure all ingredients are measured, prepped, and within reach. This streamlines the cooking process.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh mushrooms, herbs, and chicken contribute to a flavorful and satisfying dish.
  • Season Well: Don't be shy with salt and pepper. Taste-test throughout the cooking process and adjust seasonings as needed.
  • Cook Chicken Thoroughly: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) before serving.
  • Don't Overcook the Mushrooms: Mushrooms should retain a slight bite. Overcooking can make them rubbery.
  • Use High-Quality Parmesan Cheese: Freshly grated Parmesan cheese adds a rich, nutty flavor to the dish. Avoid pre-packaged shredded cheese.
  • Serve Immediately: Alfredo sauce tends to thicken as it cools. For the best results, serve the dish immediately after preparation.
