Provided by Reeni

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

⅓ cup all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon paprika
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, pounded thin and cut into 2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ cup butter, divided
1 cup dry white wine
⅓ cup chicken broth
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons capers
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 (8 ounce) package angel hair pasta, cooked and drained

Steps:

  • Whisk together flour, black pepper, and paprika in a shallow dish. Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour mixture, coating evenly; set aside. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; stir and cook the garlic until light brown, about 1 minute. Remove the garlic from the skillet and set aside.
  • Place 2 tablespoons of butter into the skillet with the olive oil. Cook the chicken pieces in the oil and butter over medium-high heat until brown, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
  • Pour the wine into the hot skillet and bring to a boil over high heat, scraping the browned pieces from the bottom and sides of the pan. Boil the wine until it is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the chicken broth, reserved garlic, lemon juice and capers. Cook for 5 minutes over medium-high heat. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and parsley. Return the chicken pieces to the skillet and continue cooking over medium heat until the sauce thickens, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the angel hair pasta, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well.
  • Remove the chicken pieces to a serving dish and drizzle with a few tablespoons of the sauce and capers. Place the cooked angel hair pasta into the skillet with the remaining piccata sauce and toss to coat.

LEMON GARLIC CHICKEN OVER ANGEL HAIR PASTA



Lemon Garlic Chicken over Angel Hair Pasta image

Elegant and delicious. 2/22/09 After reading some reviews and problem of too much liquid I would suggest decreasing to perhaps 1 1/2 cups or use the pasta water which has the starch from the pasta that would provide a thickener. Also, be sure all of the flour was used to coat the chicken; that could also be a part of the problem Thanks for the all the input reviewers!

CHICKEN ANGEL HAIR PASTA BAKE RECIPE RECIPE - (4.2/5)



Chicken Angel Hair Pasta Bake Recipe Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by á-129552

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 Pound Shredded Chicken (we prefer boneless skinless chicken breast but you can use thigh or leg quarters just make sure to remove fat and skin)
2 Cups Low Fat Low Sodium Chicken Broth
1/2 Package Angel Hair Pasta (approximately 8ounces uncooked) cooked until just soft - will finish cooking in oven
1/3 Cup Non Fat Sour Cream
1/4 Cup Skim Milk
1/4 Cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
3 Dashes Hot Sauce (Tabasco or similar)
1 Teaspoon Dried Italian Seasoning Blend (1/3 Tsp. Oregano, 1/3 Tsp. Thyme, 1/3 Tsp. Basil)
1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
Black Pepper as desired

Steps:

  • 1. I like to boil up a big batch of chicken at the begging of the week. Shredded it up and store it and then it's ready to go for recipes that night and for a couple of nights to follow. Boiling chicken is super easy. You just toss it into a pot of water and let the pot reach boiling and continue cooking until your chicken is cooked through. This recipe is also a perfect way to use up leftover shredded chicken. 2. Get your oven ready, turning it on to 350°F. Prep your casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray. 3. Now, it's as easy as combining all of your ingredients, including your cooked and shredded chicken and your cooked and drained pasta into a large bowl. Mix together all the ingredients so everything is well coated. Pour all into your casserole dish and bake for 35 minutes or until bubbling and browned around the edges!

4 ounces angel hair pasta
2 teaspoons olive oil
4 ounces fresh parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Wash and thoroughly dry the chicken breasts. Sprinkle some of the rub over each and work it into the skin well. Melt the butter in a plastic contaner and carry outside to the grill with your favorite wish. Cook the breasts on the grill for 5 minutes or until the chicken starts to firm up. Each time you turn the breasts, baste them with some of the melted butter. Do not overcook as we will be cooking them a little more in the kitchen. When done, set the breasts aside for later.
  • Put the spaghetti sauce in a pan, cover it, and heat it on a medium setting.
  • Cook the angel hair pasta as usual, add the olive oil to the pot to keep the noodles from sticking together. About 2 minutes before the noodles are done, cover the chicken breasts with grated parmesan cheese and heat them on a plate in the microwave for about 45 seconds or until the parmesan is about halfway melted. Strain the noodles and scoop onto the serving plates. Put a chicken breast on top of the noodles and cover with the spaghetti sauce. Serve immediately.

Angel chicken pasta is an easy-to-make and heavenly delicious dish that is perfect for any occasion. The dish’s combination of tender chicken and creamy sauce tossed with pasta makes it a popular recipe in many households. Whether you’re a seasoned cook or a beginner, this article provides valuable tips that can help you make the perfect angel chicken pasta. 1. Choose the Right Chicken One of the key ingredients in making angel chicken pasta is the chicken. It is important to choose fresh chicken breasts that are boneless and skinless. You can also use thighs, but breasts are preferred because they are lean, tender, and cook faster than other parts. Before cooking, always rinse the chicken breasts and pat them dry for better seasoning absorption. Also, cut chicken breasts into small chunks or thin slices for a quick and even cooking. 2. Season the Chicken For the best flavor, seasoning the chicken breasts is essential. You can use your favorite spices and herbs, such as garlic, onion, paprika, salt, and pepper, to add depth and complexity to the dish. Marinating the chicken breasts for at least 30 minutes or overnight in the refrigerator helps the flavors to develop and infuse in the meat. 3. Cook the Chicken When cooking the chicken, the aim is to get a nice golden brown color on the outside while ensuring it’s cooked through on the inside. You can cook the chicken on a stovetop, oven, or grill. Whichever method you choose, avoid overcrowding the pan or grill, as this will prevent even cooking. Cook the chicken in batches if necessary, and transfer to a plate once done. 4. Use Quality Pasta The choice of pasta significantly affects the overall taste, texture, and appearance of the dish. Angel hair pasta is commonly used in angel chicken pasta and works well because it's thin and delicate, making it perfect for soaking up the flavorful sauce. You may also use other pasta types such as fusilli, penne, or spaghetti. Whatever pasta you choose, ensure it’s of high quality, cooks evenly and doesn’t stick together. 5. Cook Pasta Al Dente Cooking pasta al dente means that it is tender but still has a bit of firmness when chewed. Overcooking pasta may lead to a mushy texture, while undercooking will result in hard and chewy pasta. To avoid this, follow the cooking instructions on the packaging and taste the pasta to check its doneness. When the pasta is done cooking, drain it well, and rinse it with cold water to stop it from continuing to cook and to remove any excess starch. 6. Make the Creamy Sauce The sauce is the heart of this dish, and a good sauce can take it to another level. The sauce is typically made with heavy cream, chicken broth, garlic, and other seasonings. You can also add vegetables such as spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, or mushrooms to increase the nutrition and flavor. Cook the sauce on a low heat setting, stirring often, until it reduces by half and thickens. Avoid boiling the sauce, as this may cause the cream to separate. 7. Combine Chicken, Pasta, and Sauce Once the chicken, pasta, and sauce are cooked, combine them to create a delicious combination. You can add parmesan cheese to the sauce while it’s still warm for a rich and creamy flavor. Transfer the pasta and chicken to the pot with the sauce, and toss gently to coat the pasta with the sauce evenly. Garnish with fresh parsley or basil and serve immediately. 8. Experiment with Different Variations If you feel that you'd like to make your angel chicken pasta unique, you can experiment with different variations. You can change the seasoning, add more vegetables or cheese, or even use different pasta types. You can also substitute the chicken with shrimp, salmon or steak, depending on your preference. Be creative and incorporate your favorite ingredients to create a delicious and unique dish that suits your taste buds. In conclusion, making angel chicken pasta requires attention to detail, patience, and creativity. With these valuable tips, you can make the perfect angel chicken pasta in no time. Remember to use quality ingredients, season your chicken, cook your pasta al dente, make the creamy sauce, and experiment with different variations. These steps will help you create a dish that is heavenly delicious and always a crowd pleaser.
