Ingredients

Lemon Butter Sauce

  • 1/2 cup freshly squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 1/4 cup White Wine
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1 pound 4 sticks Butter

Chicken and Pasta

  • 1 pound Angel Hair Pasta
  • Six to Eight 3-ounces each boneless, skinless Chicken Breasts
  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup Flour, seasoned with Salt and freshly ground Black Pepper and placed in a large shallow bowl, for dredging
  • Oil and Butter enough to sauté chicken
  • 6 ounces Pancetta cooked
  • 1 1/2 cups Mushrooms sliced thin
  • 1 1/2 cups Artichoke Hearts chopped
  • 1 cup chopped Sun-Dried Tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons Capers
  • Grated Parmesan Cheese to serve
  • Chopped Parsley to garnish

Instructions

Lemon Butter Sauce

  • Place lemon juice and white wine in a saucepan. Place pan over medium heat.
  • Bring mixture up to a boil. Boil until it is reduced by 1/3. Reduce heat to medium low.
  • Add cream. Stir to mix well. Simmer until the mixture thickens, about 3 to 4 minutes. Gradually add in butter, stirring constantly until each addition is fully melted.
  • Taste. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Remove from heat and keep warm.

Chicken and Pasta

  • Prepare pasta according to package directions. Drain. Set aside.
  • Place a chicken breast on a sturdy cutting board. Pound chicken with a kitchen mallet until thin. Repeat with remaining breasts.
  • Coat each chicken breast in prepared flour mixture.
  • In a large skillet, add a small amount of oil along with two tablespoons butter. Place skillet over medium high heat.
  • When oil and butter are hot and shimmering, sauté breasts in the skillet, turning once, until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan to a paper towel-covered plate to drain. Keep warm. Leave the skillet, as is, on the stove top.
  • Add pancetta, mushrooms, artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomatoes and capers to the skillet. Cook until the mushrooms are tender.
  • Reduce heat to low and add chicken back to the pan.

To Serve

  • Arrange cooked pasta on each plate.
  • Add 1/2 - 3/4 prepared Lemon Butter Sauce to chicken mixture. Toss carefully to combine.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more sauce, if needed.
  • Place one or two breasts over pasta on each plate.
  • Spoon a bit of pan sauce over the pasta.
  • Sprinkle with grated Parmesan Cheese, to taste
  • Sprinkle with parsley, to garnish.
  • Serve hot.
