The creamy sauce nicely flavors the fettuccine quite nicely. And it's pretty quick to prepare too, so it's great even for a busy weeknight.

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 12 ounces boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 3 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 2 large anaheim chiles, seeded and sliced into rings

How To Make chicken guadalajara

  • Step 1
    In a plastic bag combine flour, salt and pepper. Add chicken pieces and shake bag to coat evenly.
  • Step 2
    In a large skillet heat 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat until hot. Add coated chicken pieces and cook about 8 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink, and coating is golden brown, stirring occasionally. Remove chicken from skillet and keep warm.
  • Step 3
    Heat remaining butter in the same skillet until hot. Add chili peppers, onion, and crushed red pepper. Cook and stir about 5 minutes or until tender but not brown, stirring up any browned bits. Add cream to the skillet and bring just to a low boil. Return chicken to skillet, and stir until combined. Simmer, uncovered, for 1 minute more or until sauce is slightly thickened.
  • Step 4
    Spoon the creamy chicken mixture over hot, cooked (and drained) fettuccine, then sprinkle with cheese. Serve immediately while still hot.
