1 lb dry spinach fettuccine (or 2 pounds fresh)

  • chicken and soy sauce; toss and add reserved tequila/lime paste and cream.
  • Bring the sauce to a boil; boil gently until chicken is cooked through and sauce is thick (about 3 minutes).
  • When sauce is done, toss with well-drained spinach fettuccine and reserved cilantro.
  • Serve family style or transfer to serving dishes, evenly distributing chicken and vegetables.
