Fettucini with Parmesan, Chicken and Peas
Ingredients
1-1/4 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 tbsp. butter
1 cup milk, cream or half-and-half
garlic powder to taste
pepper to taste
1/2 cup basil leaves, chopped
1-1/2 cup chicken broth
3 tbsp. flour
1/3 cup parmesan cheese
1 can (15 oz.) peas
1 lb. Fettucini noodles, cooked
Directions
Place chicken in an ovenproof dish and add 1/2 cup of chicken broth. Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is slightly pink. Reserve broth and cut the breasts across the grain into medium sized slices. Let cool.
In a saucepan, melt butter. Add flour and stir. With a whisk, add milk. Stir in one cup of the chicken broth and then add the reserved broth from the cooked chicken. Add parmesan cheese, garlic powder, pepper, peas, basil and chicken. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through. Pour sauce over Fettucini. Serve immediately. Serves 4.
