Spicy Chicken with Carrot “Fettuccine”


Art Institute of Pittsburgh

Ingredients:
  • 1 pound chicken tenders, cut into strips
  • 2 TBLS olive oil
  • 2 TBLS butter
  • 2 shallots, chopped (about 3 tablespoons)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 piece ginger (about 1 inch), peeled and chopped
  • ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 10 carrots (about 1 ½ pounds), peeled and cut into ribbon-like strands with a vegetable peeler
  • ¾ cup dry white wine
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 1 cup frozen peas, thawed
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

Directions:
In large skillet over medium high heat, warm olive oil and melt butter. Add chicken and cook, turning, until browned and cooked throughout, about 3 minutes per side. Remove chicken to large bowl. In same skillet, add shallots, garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes. Saute until shallots are translucent, about 2 minutes. Transfer shallot mixture to bowl with chicken.

Add carrot ribbons to skillet. Increase heat to high and cook, using tongs to stir and toss, until barely tender, about 4 – 5 minutes. Place carrots in bowl with chicken. Pour wine into hot skillet, stir to deglaze pan and boil until volume is reduced by half, about 3 minutes.

Add heavy cream and chicken stock to pan; bring back to a boil and continue boiling until liquid is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Return chicken and carrot mixture to pan. Add peas, salt and pepper. Simmer and toss until heat through, about 2 minutes.

Divide dish among four plates. Top each with ¼ cup Parmesan cheese.
