Chicken

Pasta

Alfredo Sauce

Method

Prepare the Chicken

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Rub the mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Cook the Pasta

  1. 3

    Boil Water

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add 1 tablespoon of salt.

  2. 4

    Cook Spaghetti

    Add the spaghetti to the boiling water and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Make the Alfredo Sauce

  1. 5

    Melt Butter and Sauté Garlic

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  2. 6

    Add Cream and Cheese

    Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper.

Combine and Serve

  1. 7

    Mix Pasta and Sauce

    Add the cooked spaghetti to the Alfredo sauce, tossing to coat the pasta evenly.

  2. 8

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the pasta on plates, top with sliced grilled chicken, and sprinkle with shaved Parmesan cheese and roasted red pepper flakes to taste.
