Chefs Famous Chicken Fettuccine Boscaiola
One of the BEST pastas you’ll ever see!
Part of the Copy Pasta Master Range. This was one of my first pastas I learnt to make, while working in an Italian Restaurant. It’s easily one of my all-time favourites. With no hassle, anyone can make this creamy pasta. Hearty enough to fill a whole family, yet also fancy enough for a special occasion. No need to go out to an Italian Restaurant when you have Chef’s Copy Pasta Master recipes!
Have some FUN and make pasta for EVERYONE!
It's ok if you don't have time to make your own pasta. Most of the time, I get store-bought pasta myself. Tastes just as good though!

INGREDIENTS
DIRECTIONS
Cook the pasta according to packet instructions, and also add a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of oil in the pot. Don’t overcook it since the pasta will also be cooked later. Roughly 10 minutes. Prepare the other ingredients while the pasta cooks.
To dice the garlic, cut off the end and crush it while still in the skin. Remove the skin. It should easily peel away. Dice garlic until it is in small chunks. Set aside.
Slice the onion. Slice your mushrooms Set them aside. Slice your cheese. Set it aside in a cool place.
Dice the chicken into chunks. Finely slice the bacon. Set Aside.
Drain the pasta. Wash and cool it under cold, running water. This way, it has a nice al dente texture. Set aside.
In a pan heat oil on high heat. Add in the garlic and onion and sauté until clear. An enchanting aroma will start to come out. Add chicken and water. Toss occasionally until the chicken is cooked.
Once the chicken is almost cooked, add your seasoning. Add bacon. Add the mushrooms. Toss to thoroughly mix
Cook until the water is slightly reduced. Add the pasta. Toss thoroughly.
Add the cream and cook until reduced, tossing your Ingredients to mix. Once the cream has thickened, add cheese. Mix well to incorporate the cheese. Your pasta is done if the sauce sticks to the pasta well.
Sprinkle herbs on top. My personal favourites are oregano and parsley. Dig in and enjoy!
