Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 eggs
2 cups fresh French breadcrumbs
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
3/4 pound skinless boneless chicken breast halves
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 pound uncooked large shrimp, peeled, deveined
2/3 cup dry white wine
1 cup whipping cream
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 pound fusilli

Steps:

  • Place eggs in shallow bowl and beat to blend. Mix breadcrumbs, 1/3 cup parsley, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in another shallow bowl. Dip chicken into eggs, then into crumb mixture, turning to coat completely.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; sauté until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to plate. Discard oil in skillet; add 1 tablespoon oil. Add shrimp; sauté over medium-high heat until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer shrimp to plate with chicken. Add wine to skillet; boil until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 2 minutes. Add cream; boil until sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Mix in cayenne and Parmesan.
  • Cut chicken into 1/2-inch pieces. Return chicken, shrimp and any collected juices to sauce in skillet. Stir over medium heat until heated through.
  • Meanwhile, cook fusilli in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite.
  • Drain pasta. Add to skillet; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to large bowl. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons parsley and serve.
