Recipe Summary Thyme Mint Chicken Pasta
This is a great dish to serve when you are tired of the normal Alfredo or spaghetti. Great flavors and very aromatic. You can use pork or ham instead of the chicken to change it up. You can also add fresh grape tomatoes, mushrooms, onion, or broccoli. I am sure there are many other varieties; these are just what i have used in the past.Ingredients | Rosemary Thyme Chicken Breast1 (16 ounce) package thin whole-wheat spaghetti1 tablespoon olive oil2 tablespoons olive oil1 ¼ pounds skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into strips1 pinch salt and freshly ground pepper to taste½ cup dry white wine½ cup chicken stock1 ½ cups heavy cream2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint1 ½ tablespoons chopped fresh thyme2 teaspoons honey1 teaspoon lemon zest1 teaspoon sherry vinegar½ teaspoon saltDirectionsBring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 12 minutes; drain. Toss spaghetti with 1 tablespoon olive oil to keep from sticking together.Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken generously with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken in hot oil until lightly browned and just cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.Pour white wine into the skillet; bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add chicken stock; continue cooking until the volume of liquid reduces by about half. Stir cream, mint, thyme, honey, lemon zest, sherry vinegar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt into the liquid; cook until the volume of the liquid reduces again by about half. Stir cooked pasta into the sauce to coat. Return chicken to the skillet and cook until hot, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to serve.Info | Rosemary Thyme Chicken Breastprep: 20 mins cook: 25 mins total: 45 mins Servings: 4 Yield: 4 servings
