Lemon and Pea Alfredo image

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     side-dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt
1 pound fusilli con buco pasta, such as Rustichella d'Abruzzo or Setaro
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, smashed
2 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
1 cup mascarpone, at room temperature
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest (from 1 large lemon)
1 1/2 cups frozen peas, thawed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon pink peppercorns, ground

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until just short of al dente, 10 or 11 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil to the hot skillet. When the butter is melted, add the garlic; cook, stirring often, until soft and fragrant. Add 1/2 cup of the pasta water, then reduce the heat to low.
  • When the pasta is ready, lift it out of the water and add it directly to the sauce; reserve the pasta water. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the pasta and stir to combine. Return the heat to medium, add the mascarpone, lemon zest and 3/4 teaspoon salt and toss well. Continue cooking until the pasta is al dente, another minute or two, adding pasta water as needed to thin the sauce.
  • Add the peas and lemon juice; toss well to combine. Add more pasta water as needed to reach the desired sauce consistency (you will most likely use about 1 1/2 cups pasta water in all).
  • Sprinkle with the pink pepper and additional Parmesan, if desired.

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 avoid any scrambling.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. If possible, use organic and locally sourced ingredients.
  • Cook the Chicken Properly: Chicken is a delicate protein, so it's important to cook it properly. Make sure the chicken is cooked all the way through, but not overcooked, or it will become dry and tough.
  • Don't Overcook the Snow Peas: Snow peas should be cooked quickly, just until they are tender-crisp. Overcooking will make them mushy.
  • Add the Lemon Juice at the End: Adding the lemon juice at the end of the cooking process will help to preserve its bright flavor.

Conclusion:

This lemon chicken fettuccine with snow peas is a light and refreshing dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's easy to make and packed with flavor. The combination of lemon, garlic, and herbs creates a delicious sauce that pairs perfectly with the tender chicken and crisp snow peas.
