Chicken Tequila Fettucine
Ingredients:
- 1 pound dry spinach fettucine
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh garlic
- 2 tablespoons minced jalapeno pepper

- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 2 tablespoons gold tequila
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 1/4 pounds chicken breast, diced 3/4 inch
- 1/4 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1/2 medium yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1/2 medium green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
Preparation:
Prepare rapidly boiling, salted water to cook pasta; cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes. Toss with a little oil and set aside. Cook 1/3 cup cilantro, garlic and jalapeno in 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes. Add stock, tequila, and lime juice. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until reduced to a paste like consistency; set aside.
Pour soy sauce over diced chicken; set aside for 5 minutes. Meanwhile cook onion and peppers, stirring occasionally, with remaining butter over medium heat for 3−4 minutes. Add chicken and soy sauce; toss and add reserved tequila/lime paste and cream. Bring the sauce to a boil; boil gently until chicken is cooked through and sauce is thick (about 3 minutes). When sauce is done, toss with well−drained spinach fettucine and remaining cilantro.
