Calories: 598kcal
Ingredients
- 4 chicken cutlets (or 2 breasts, halved lengthwise)
- ¼ cup all purpose flour
- 4 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 9 oz fettucine
- ½ cup chicken broth
- ½ teaspoon lemon juice
- ¼ cup fresh sage leaves
- ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Combine flour, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes together in a shallow dish. Add chicken and coat on both sides.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken and cook for 3-5 minutes on each side, until cooked through and it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- Remove chicken from the skillet and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add in the sage and lightly fry it for a minute. Then pour in the chicken stock and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits.
- Stir the cooked pasta into the sauce. Squeeze lemon juice on top. Add the chicken back to the skillet and sprinkle cheese on top. Stir everything together.
- Season to taste with additional salt and pepper and serve.
Notes
Substitutions: 2 chicken breasts can be sliced in half lengthwise to create 4 cutlets. Pasta can be replaced with spaghetti squash for a low-carb version. Chicken can be replaced with turkey cutlets, pork chops, shrimp or scallops.
