Simple and hearty, although not figure-friendly. Ingredients:
6 chicken breasts, skinned & boned |
6 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil |
1/4 cup fresh basil leaf |
salt |
fresh ground pepper |
3 tablespoons butter |
4 medium shallots |
2 cups cream |
6 ounces fresh mushrooms |
1 cup frozen english peas |
salt |
fresh ground pepper |
1 (9 ounce) package fresh fettuccine |
2 ounces fresh grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Cut breasts in half and place side by side on a platter. Drizzle with the vinegar and oil. Cut basil leaves and sprinkle over the breasts; sprinkle salt and pepper. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
2. Grill the breasts or bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Set aside.
3. Peel and finely chop shallots. Saute in butter 1 minute. Add cream, salt and pepper to taste. Boil to reduce slightly to the consistency of a light sauce, just thick enough to coat a spoon. Add mushrooms and peas and cook another 2 minutes.
4. Cook pasta, drain and shake out excess water. Thinly slice chicken. Add to pasta and gently toss with sauce, along with cheese. Serve immediately.
