We love anything blackened and especially love this dish. The first time I made it, I thought they were going to lick their plates...LOL I took aspects of several recipes of mine to make this dish. My family couldn't be happier with it. Can easily double the sauce if feeding many. The chicken makes a killer sandwich and is...

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 c butter
2 - 3 clove garlic, minced
1 3/4 c heavy cream
salt & pepper to taste
1/2 c grated parmesan
3/4 c grated romano cheese
pinch nutmeg
12 - 16 oz prepared fettuccine noodles ( box instructions )
olive oil for frying and rubbing chicken
2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts - cut in half lengthwise or 4 small, thinner breasts
BLACKENING RUB
1 Tbsp each - paprika & sugar
4 tsp dried thyme
2 tsp each - onion powder, garlic powder, kosher salt
1 tsp each - cayenne or to taste & oregano
1 1/2 tsp black pepper
3/4 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp nutmeg

Steps:

  • 1. In a bowl, mix all spices and pour into a large baggie, or pour onto a large plate.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350 degree F. I then heat up my iron skillet for about 10 minutes or until smoking. Drizzle chicken pieces with olive oil, using hands evenly coat each piece. Either place the chicken in the baggie and shake, making sure each piece is coated evenly. Or, place seasoning on a plate and press each breast into seasoning, to evenly coat. Once pan is hot, drizzle with about 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Place each chicken breast in pan and saute for 5 minutes on one side then flip and cook another 5 minutes. Place skillet in oven and continue cooking until juices run clear. ( this will help keep kitchen from becoming so smoky )
  • 3. In meantime, make Alfredo sauce and have your pasta cooking. In a large skillet, add butter and garlic. Cook for a few minutes, stir in the cream, salt and pepper. Simmer 1 minute, then stir in the cheeses and heat until melted. Continue simmering until desired thickness, stirring constantly. Stir in nutmeg. Sauce will thicken more as it cools. If needs thinned out, just add a bit more cream or milk.
  • 4. Remove chicken from oven and let rest for about 4 minutes. Drain pasta and plate. Slice each breast on a diagonal and place atop fettuccine, ladle desired amount of sauce, sprinkle with more Parmesan if desired. Salt and pepper if desired.
  • 5. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
  • Use a large skillet: A large skillet will give you plenty of room to cook the chicken and vegetables without overcrowding the pan.
  • Cook the chicken in batches: If you're cooking a lot of chicken, cook it in batches to prevent the pan from getting too crowded. This will also help the chicken cook more evenly.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts can dry out quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Cook them until they are just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • Make sure the Alfredo sauce is thick enough: The Alfredo sauce should be thick enough to coat the pasta, but not so thick that it's difficult to stir. If the sauce is too thin, add a little more Parmesan cheese or cornstarch.
  • Serve the pasta immediately: Alfredo sauce is best served immediately after it's made. If you need to hold the pasta for a while, keep it warm in a slow cooker or oven until you're ready to serve.

Conclusion:

Blackened chicken fettuccine Alfredo is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The blackened chicken is flavorful and juicy, and the Alfredo sauce is rich and creamy. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
