Chicken Alfredo

1: Begin by splitting your chicken breast in half and pounding them as thin as possible.

2: In a small bowl, add your seasonings for your blackening spices.

3: Mix them together and then add some of them to the tops of your chicken breast and press them into the chicken.

4: Cook your linguine noodles according to package instructions and save half a cup of pasta water at the end.

5: Make sure to salt your pasta water.

6: While your noodles are cooking, add 2 tbsp of butter to your skillet along with your olive oil.

7: Set your skillet to medium heat.

8: Once your butter and olive oil are bubbly, add your chicken in.

9: Cook your chicken until it is golden brown on each side and it is cooked to 165°F.

10: Once your chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet.

11: In the same skillet set to medium heat, add in your stick of butter and heavy cream.

12: As your butter starts to melt, whisk thoroughly to blend it with the cream.

13: Add the rest of the blackening spices to your cream sauce and whisk together.

14: Once your sauce starts to reduce by 1/3 and is simmering, add in your linguine noodles.

15: Let your noodles cook in the sauce for about 5 minutes and add your reserve pasta water.

16: Use your spoon to test the thickness of your sauce.

17: Once your sauce is thick, turn off the heat and add in your parmesan cheese.

18: Gently blend your parmesan cheese with the noodles.

19: Top the noodles with your chicken, more parmesan cheese, and parsley.

20: Serve it family style and enjoy!
