Ingredients

  • Chicken:
    • Chicken breasts or thighs
    • Flour
    • Eggs
    • Breadcrumbs
    • Salt
    • Black pepper
    • Paprika
    • Vegetable oil
  • Pasta:
    • Short pasta (penne or rigatoni)
    • Butter
    • Heavy cream
    • Parmesan cheese
    • Garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Season flour with salt, pepper, and paprika. Coat chicken in flour, dip in egg, then breadcrumbs.
  2. Fry in hot oil until golden and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
  3. Boil pasta in salted water. In a pan, melt butter, then add cream, garlic powder, and parmesan cheese. Stir to combine and make a creamy sauce.

Notes

  • For added flavor, try adding herbs or cheese to the breadcrumb coating.

  • Store chicken separately from the pasta and reheat in the oven to keep the chicken crispy.
  • For a lower-carb version, try zucchini noodles instead of pasta.
