  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions 

CHICKEN

  1. In a bowl, add the chicken, olive oil, Italian seasoning, lemon pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix to marinade evenly.
  2. Heat an oiled skillet or pan over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the marinated chicken to the pan and cook on each side until golden brown, about 3 minutes each side. Then drop the heat to low and allow the chicken to cook through to the center or the temperature registers 165°F. Remove the chicken from the pan.

PASTA

  1. Cook pasta according to package directions in salted water.

ALFREDO SAUCE

  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt down the butter with the garlic.
  2. Add the heavy cream, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Whisk together and bring to a simmer for a few minutes to thicken.
  3. Add the parmesan and whisk again until the sauce thickens. Once it thickens, mix in the fresh parsley and take off the heat.
  4. Add the cooked pasta and mix.
  5. Plate with the chicken and more fresh parmesan on top!

    I made this tonight. It was so good! The chicken was seasoned perfectly. The pasta was a bit greasy- I will use less butter next time.
