PASTA WITH CHICKEN AND ASPARAGUS RECIPE - ITALIAN.FOOD.COM



Pasta With Chicken and Asparagus Recipe - Italian.Food.com image

A delightful pasta which I clipped out of the Times about 25 years ago and it is still a great meal--just add salad, wine and dessert. Broccoli can be substituted for the asparagus; other blue veined cheeses for the gorgonzola--though the gorgonzola does melt so beautifully into the sauce.

Total Time 25 minutes

Prep Time 25 minutes

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1 lb asparagus spear, fresh
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 lb fettuccine (or linguini)
coarse salt
fresh ground pepper
3 tablespoons shallots, finely chopped
1 cup heavy cream
1 small chili pepper (or 1 teaspoon dried hot pepper flakes(or to taste)
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly grated
1/4 lb gorgonzola
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)
1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, freshly grated

Steps:

  • Remove all sinew and cartilege from the chicken breast and cut into strips about 1 and 1/2 inches long and a half inch wide.
  • Scrape and trim the asparagus, discarding any tough ends, and cut on the diagonal into one and half lengths.
  • Drop the asparagus into rapidly boiling water and cook for just a few moments--they should still be crisp--and drain and reserve, keeping warm.
  • Cook the pasta in rapidly boiling salted water until al dente and drain and reserve, keeping warm.
  • Heat the butter in a casserole and add the chicken strips, stirring and seasoning with coarse salt and freshly ground pepper, cooking less than a minute, until the chicken just begins to change color.
  • Add the asparagus and stir.
  • Add the shallots and cook briefly, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the cream, hot red pepper (or pepper flakes) and the tarragon and stir.
  • Break the gorgonzola cheese into small lumps and add it, cooking just until the cheese melts.
  • Add a generous grinding of black pepper and the tarragon and stir.
  • Add the drained pasta and toss well.
  • Serve with grated parmesan on the side.
