Course Main dishes, Pasta
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings 4 People

Ingredients

  • 4 tbs butter unsalted
  • 1 lb chicken breast boneless and skinless, cut into small cubes
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 5 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp oregano dried
  • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 2 cup chicken stock
  • 1 tbs hot sauce
  • 2 tbs lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 12 oz linguine uncooked
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes halved or quartered
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese grated

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the onion, garlic, oregano and red pepper flakes to the pot and cook for 5 more minutes, or until the onion begins to soften and becomes translucent.
  • Add the wine, chicken stock, hot sauce, lemon juice and linguine. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 8 minutes, or until the linguine is al dente. If you feel that more liquid is necessary, add 1/2 cup of chicken broth at a time until the pasta is cooked to your preference.
  • Stir in the tomatoes and garnish with parsley and Parmesan cheese.
