Breaded Chicken w/Garlic Butter Fettuccine



Ingredients

Pasta

1/2 lb fettuccine
1/2 cup butter
4 cloves garlic (minced)
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (grated) (I used the garlic parm blend)

Chicken

Olive Oil (enough to fill 1/4 inch of the frying pan)
4 oz Bread Crumbs (you can use any type you want (Panko, Italian etc.)
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
1/2 cup mayo


Directions

1) Combine the breadcrumbs, pepper, salt, Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese in a bowl.

2) Coat chicken cutlets with the mayo and then coat with the breading mixture.

3) Add the Olive Oil to the frying pan and let it heat up for 2-3 minutes over medium heat.

4) Cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side until cooked through.

5) Bring a pot of water to a boil and then add your fettuccine noodles.

6) In a sauce pan melt your butter over low heat. Then add the garlic, pepper and Parmesan cheese once the butter has melted and keep warm over a low heat until the pasta has cooked according to pkg. directions.

7) Once pasta is cooked, drain and return to the pot. Pour the butter garlic sauce on top and toss to coat.

8) Serve the pasta with the chicken and enjoy!



Depending on how much pasta you decide to do (if you do more than the 1/2 pound) you may have to double up on the garlic butter sauce so that your pasta is nice and covered. This definitely is a different switch from your normal chicken and pasta dish.
