Alfredo Lime Chicken Pasta
The zing of lime brightens up this dish and puts a fresh twist on the classic chicken Alfredo. Best yet – your kids will love it!
Ingredients
1 pkg Alfredo Sauce Mix
1 1⁄2 cups milk, your choice
3⁄4 lb (340 g) uncooked fettuccine
1 tbsp oil
1 lb (450 g) boneless, skinless chicken breast fillets
Black Pepper, to taste
1 lime
Preparation
In a bowl, whisk sauce mix with milk. Set aside.
In Multipurpose Pot set over high heat, boil pasta until tender, about 8–10 min.
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.
Add reserved seasoning mixture. Reduce heat to medium, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens, about 2 min. Turn off heat.
Using a microplane or small holes on a box grater, zest lime.
Once cooked, drain pasta; add to pan. Add lime zest.
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.
