Our state is famous for its green chilies. Naturally, my husband and I included them in this linguine dish we invented. The sauce is also excellent with spaghetti or fettuccine noodles. All of our five children, ages 3 to 13, love it.

SPICY CHICKEN LINGUINE

I like this spicy so I usually add more red pepper, if you don't like spicy stuff, replace the red pepper with black pepper, or leave it out (but it won't be as good). This is another great recipe from the Chicago Tribune Good Eating section.

Categories     Chicken     Herb     Pasta     Pepper     Sauté     Summer     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1/3-inch-wide strips
3 green onions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/3 cup chopped pecans, toasted
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons minced seeded jalapeño
1/4 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
1/2 cup purchased pesto
12 ounces linguine
Additional chopped fresh cilantro
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Add chicken to skillet and sauté until cooked through and beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer chicken to bowl. Add green onions, 1/3 cup cilantro, pecans, garlic, jalapeño and dried red pepper to same skillet. Sauté until green onions wilt, about 2 minutes. Add pesto, chicken and any accumulated juices; stir to blend. Remove from heat.
  • Meanwhile, cook linguine in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid.
  • Bring sauce to simmer. Add linguine and reserved cooking liquid to sauce and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to large bowl. Sprinkle with additional cilantro. Serve, passing Parmesan separately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the sauce will taste. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: Make sure the chicken is cooked through before adding it to the sauce. This will help to prevent foodborne illness.
  • Reduce the sauce: Reduce the sauce over medium heat until it has thickened to your desired consistency. This will help to concentrate the flavors of the sauce.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to season the sauce to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or Italian seasoning, to taste.
  • Serve immediately: Serve the sauce immediately over cooked linguine. Garnish with fresh parsley or basil, if desired.

This linguine with spicy chicken sauce is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The sauce is made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand, and it comes together in just 30 minutes. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the sauce is flavorful and spicy.
