The creamy sauce nicely flavors the fettuccine quite nicely. And it's pretty quick to prepare too, so it's great even for a busy weeknight.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 c all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
12 oz boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
3 Tbsp butter or margarine
2 large anaheim chiles, seeded and sliced into rings
1 medium onion, sliced into rings
1/4-1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
3/4 c light cream or half-and-half
1/3 c shredded monterey jack cheese
2 c hot cooked fettuccine pasta

Steps:

  • 1. In a plastic bag combine flour, salt and pepper. Add chicken pieces and shake bag to coat evenly.
  • 2. In a large skillet heat 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat until hot. Add coated chicken pieces and cook about 8 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink, and coating is golden brown, stirring occasionally. Remove chicken from skillet and keep warm.
  • 3. Heat remaining butter in the same skillet until hot. Add chili peppers, onion, and crushed red pepper. Cook and stir about 5 minutes or until tender but not brown, stirring up any browned bits. Add cream to the skillet and bring just to a low boil. Return chicken to skillet, and stir until combined. Simmer, uncovered, for 1 minute more or until sauce is slightly thickened.
  • 4. Spoon the creamy chicken mixture over hot, cooked (and drained) fettuccine, then sprinkle with cheese. Serve immediately while still hot.
