Pasta

Method

Pasta Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook Pasta

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Chicken Preparation

  1. 2

    Season and Cook Chicken

    Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Rub the blackened seasoning evenly over both sides of the chicken. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char. Remove from skillet and let rest before slicing.

Cream Sauce Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the Cream Sauce

    In the same skillet used for the chicken, reduce heat to medium and add butter. Once melted, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Combine and Serve

  1. 4

    Combine and Garnish

    Add the cooked pasta to the cream sauce, tossing to coat. Slice the blackened chicken and arrange it on top of the pasta. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
