Ingredients

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
3 tablespoons sour cream
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
One 8-ounce boneless skinless chicken breast

8 ounces dried penne
1/2 cup jarred roasted red peppers, drained and chopped

Steps:

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Whisk together the mayonnaise, basil, parsley, sour cream, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat until hot; brush with the oil. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken, turning once, until well-marked and just cooked through, about 7 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
Meanwhile, cook the broccoli in the boiling water until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer the broccoli to a colander with a slotted spoon and run under cold water to stop the cooking process. Add the broccoli to the bowl with the dressing.
Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool; add to the bowl.

Tips:

Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure all your ingredients are prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your dish turns out perfectly.
Choose Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs add a burst of flavor to any dish. If you can, use fresh herbs whenever possible.
Don't Overcook the Chicken: Chicken can dry out quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Cook it until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Use a Good Quality Olive Oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in this dish, so make sure to use a good quality oil that has a fruity flavor.
Don't Crowd the Pan: When searing the chicken, don't crowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
Deglaze the Pan: After searing the chicken, deglaze the pan with white wine. This will help to loosen any browned bits and add flavor to the sauce.
Use a Good Quality Fettuccini: The fettuccini is the backbone of this dish, so make sure to use a good quality pasta that holds its shape well.
Cook the Fettuccini Al Dente: Cook the fettuccini al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will help it to hold its shape and not become mushy.
Add the Sauce to the Pasta: Once the pasta is cooked, add it to the sauce and toss to coat. This will help the sauce to cling to the pasta.
Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Before serving, garnish the dish with fresh herbs such as parsley, basil, or thyme.
