Ingredients:
- 2 cups - parmesan cheese
- - black pepper to taste
- 1/4 cups - parsley chopped, optional
- 1/2 pounds - fettuccine or spaghetti noodles
- 1 cups - frozen broccoli florets optional
- 6 - chicken tenderloins
- - fajita seasoning and dried thyme
- 4 tablespoons - butter
- 1 cloves - garlic minced
- 2 cups - half-and-half OR heavy cream
Directions:
Bring salted water to a boil in a medium saucepan.
Meanwhile, flatten chicken pieces with mallet (cover chicken pieces with waxed paper or saran wrap to keep juices from splattering); season with fajita seasoning and thyme.
Melt a tablespoon of butter with a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet, and when heated, place chicken pieces in skillet over medium-high heat; cover and cook about 4 minutes 'til one side is browned, then turn and cook on other side 4-5 minutes.
Meanwhile, when water has come to a boil, place noodles and broccoli (if using) into boiling water, and cook for 10 minutes or until noodles are al dente.
In a small saucepan, heat butter and saute garlic for 2 minutes; lower heat slightly and stir in the cream or half-and-half. Heat and stir for 5-8 minutes until thickened and heated through; stir in Parmesan cheese until combined.
Turn heat to low in skillet with chicken; remove chicken pieces and dice, then return to skillet. Drain pasta and broccoli, then pour into skillet with chicken. Stir in the sauce, and add pepper to taste.
Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
