Ingredients

  • 1 pkg Alfredo Sauce Mix
  • 1 12 cups milk, your choice
  • 34 lb (340 g) uncooked fettuccine
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 lb (450 g) boneless, skinless chicken breast fillets
  • Black Pepper, to taste
  • 1 lime

Preparation

  1. In a bowl, whisk sauce mix with milk. Set aside.
  2. In Multipurpose Pot set over high heat, boil pasta until tender, about 8–10 min.
  3. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large fry pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and season with pepper. Cook until golden and cooked through, about 8 min.
  4. Add reserved seasoning mixture. Reduce heat to medium, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens, about 2 min. Turn off heat.
  5. Using a microplane or small holes on a box grater, zest lime.
  6. Once cooked, drain pasta; add to pan. Add lime zest.
  7. Slice lime in half. Using 2-in-1 Citrus Press, squeeze in juice from 1⁄2 lime. Using tongs, toss to combine. Taste, adding juice from remaining 1⁄2 lime, if desired.
