Italian chicken with white wine sauce is one of the most famous restaurants
To make Italian chicken pasta in creamy white wine sauce, you'll need the following ingredients:
Ingredients:
For the chicken:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (such as oregano, basil, thyme)
For the sauce:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup white wine (dry wine such as Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio works well)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
For the pasta:
- 8 oz (225g) pasta of your choice (linguine, fettuccine, or penne)
Instructions:
1. Start by cooking the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and dried Italian herbs on both sides.
3. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of butter and minced garlic. Sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
5. Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off and the sauce to reduce slightly.
6. Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir well to combine with the wine and garlic mixture.
7. Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce, stirring continuously until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Slice the cooked chicken breasts into thin strips and add them back to the skillet, stirring gently to coat the chicken with the creamy sauce.
9. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss everything together until the pasta is well coated with the sauce.
10. Serve the Italian chicken pasta in creamy white wine sauce , garnished with freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy!
This dish pairs well with a side of garlic bread or a crisp green salad. Buon appetito!
