With some pasta on hand, a bit of sour cream, chicken, and spice, you can throw together this great dish. This is a newer, easier, healthier version of a classic. The sour cream adds a bit of fat, but it's still lower-fat than the original recipe, and it seems to be a crowd-pleaser. Serves 4.
Ingredients:
To make this a quick and easy recipe for dinner, prepare chicken ahead of time. Or, grill 3 or 4 half breasts, to yield: > 3 to 4 c. cooked, boned chicken, in 1 to 2� chunks
Also prepare peppers, chopping into 1/2" diced pieces: > 1 green pepper > 1 red pepper
Grill the diced peppers in very hot skillet for a few minutes, in a little olive oil, with a splash of water to steam them a bit. Set cooked peppers aside.
Cook the following until tender, rinsing, cooling, and tossing with a bit of olive oil to keep it from clumping: > 8 oz. or so dry fettuccini (or your choice of pasta)
In iron skillet or saucepan, mix: > 1/4 c. olive oil > 1/4 c. flour > 1 TBS. paprika > 1 tsp. salt > 1/2 tsp. pepper > 1/2 TBS. chopped, fresh garlic
Slowly add: > 1 1/2 c. chicken stock
Bring mixture to a boil. Boil and stir for 2 minutes. Turn off heat, adding last: > 1/2 c. sour cream > The cooked chicken chunks > Diced, cooked peppers
Serve over the cooked pasta, with a side dish of steamed green vegetables, as desired, for extra color.
