40-Cloves-of-Garlic Chicken Alfredo image

This rich, creamy pasta is perfect for a Valentine's dinner for two...if you're both garlic lovers (and you're not dating a vampire!). Otherwise, enjoy it on your own with the rest of that bottle of wine you just opened and avoid the Valentine's hype.

Time 45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
40 cloves garlic (about 3 heads), peeled and trimmed
Vegetable oil, for cooking
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 8 ounces), trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 cup heavy cream
8 ounces dried fettuccine
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to boil for the pasta.
  • Thinly slice 5 garlic cloves. Heat about a 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a small skillet over medium heat, then add 1 slice of garlic. Cook until the garlic is at a lively sizzle, then sprinkle in the rest of the garlic. Cook, stirring, until the garlic is just golden and crisp (don't overcook or it will be bitter), about 1 minute. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and whole garlic cloves and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until both the chicken and garlic are golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the wine and adjust the heat so the sauce is simmering, then cover and cook until the chicken and garlic are tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Uncover and adjust the heat so the sauce reduces and is syrupy, about 1 minute. Add the cream and simmer until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes; reduce the heat to low and keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, cook the pasta until al dente according to the package directions. Drain the pasta, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water. Add the pasta to the simmering sauce and toss to coat, adding a little pasta water if it seems dry. Remove the skillet from the heat, then stir in the Parmesan and remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve in pasta bowls topped with the garlic chips.

This recipe is a bit too garlicky for my taste. I would recommend using fewer cloves of garlic.

I'm not a big fan of Alfredo sauce, but this recipe is delicious. The garlic flavor really balances out the richness of the sauce.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to add more garlic. I love garlic, so I would have liked to have a stronger garlic flavor.
