Description

A rich Italian-American dish featuring crispy Parmesan-crusted chicken breast atop fettuccine noodles in a velvety butter-cream sauce, made with aged cheese and garlic for restaurant-quality comfort at home.


Ingredients

Scale

4 medium chicken breasts
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 lb fettuccine pasta
4 garlic cloves
1 1/2 cups crushed cornflakes
1 tsp black pepper
1 1/2 tsp salt


Instructions

Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C)
Whisk heavy cream and garlic in a saucepan
Simmer sauce gently, stirring frequently until thickened
Grate butter into the reduction and stir until smooth
Meanwhile, crush cornflakes and mix with Parmesan, salt, and black pepper
Coat chicken breasts in the mixture and fry in a skillet until golden
Cook fettuccine according to package instructions
Toss cooked pasta with completed Alfredo sauce
Top with fried Parmesan-crusted chicken

Notes

Use cornflakes instead of breadcrumbs for halal compliance
Add butter at the end of sauce cooking to maintain stability
Chicken can be baked for 20 minutes for a lighter alternative
