Nutty Chicken Fettuccine Recipe

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons ground walnuts
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves – cut into thin strips
  • 1 medium sweet red pepper, julienned
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 ounces uncooked fettuccine
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cubed
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
  1. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the first six ingredients. Add chicken in batches; toss to coat. In a large skillet, saute the chicken, red pepper and onion in oil for 6-8 minutes until chicken juices run clear and vegetables are crisp-tender.
  2. Meanwhile, cook fettuccine according to package directions. In a saucepan, combine the milk, cream cheese and Parmesan cheese; cook and stir over medium heat for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and sauce is smooth. Drain fettuccine; top with chicken mixture and sauce. Sprinkle with toasted walnuts.
