Ingredients
Scale
For the Chicken:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (sliced into cutlets)
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs (beaten)
- 1 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese (divided)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 3 tablespoons olive oil (for pan-frying)
For the Alfredo Pasta:
- 12 oz fettuccine pasta
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 ½ cups heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
- Chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the Fettuccine: Cook the fettuccine in salted boiling water according to package instructions. Drain and set aside, reserving ½ cup pasta water.
- Prepare the Chicken: Season flour with salt and pepper. Dip chicken in flour, then in beaten egg, and coat in breadcrumb mixture. Pan-fry until golden brown and fully cooked.
- Make the Alfredo Sauce: Sauté garlic in butter, add heavy cream, Parmesan, and nutmeg. Toss cooked fettuccine in the sauce.
- Assemble: Slice chicken, serve over Alfredo pasta, and garnish with parsley and extra Parmesan.
Notes
- For a lighter version, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
- Air fry or bake the chicken for a healthier alternative.
- Add steamed broccoli or spinach to the Alfredo for extra veggies.
