Chicken Puttanesca with Fettuccine
The delicious, piquant sauce in this dish goes wonderfully with chicken that is sautéed first then allowed to simmer in the sauce to absorb all the flavors. The pungent tastes of the Mediterranean mingle well in this good dish.
Chicken Puttanesca is one of my favorite Italian pasta dishes! This recipe is a quick variation of the dish using bottled pasta sauce with the requisite capers, olives and red pepper making it a savory puttanesca with a little heat. Next time, I will be trying this tangy sauce with shrimp or a whitefish.
This is a perfect dinner for these cool fall evenings. You can make dinner in a flash with this great homey recipe that is a wonderful company dish also! It is truly delicious and I hope you try it!
