This is, without a doubt, the best recipe we have prepared in a long time: lemon garlic fettuccine, is inspired by these recipes that are very successful on Instagram in which long pasta is prepared with a delicious garlic sauce. We have also added a delicious touch of lemon, which goes great with the sweetness of roasted garlic and lots of Parmesan. All cooked slowly, it makes a super creamy, juicy and flavorful pasta dish.

And, in addition, we are going to accompany it with some delicious breaded chicken fillets that will complete our plate to make a plate of 10. We leave you the video recipe so you don't miss a single detail  above all, pay attention to the garlic sauce, which is made with oven-roasted garlic, which gives it a super-super special flavor.

Some advices:

Don't be scared by the amount of garlic because, when roasted in the oven, they lose all their spiciness and become a garlic paste, sweet and creamy delicious!

Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese and freshly ground pepper, you will see how aromatic it is.

 Leave the pasta al dente, it will be just right when you finish cooking it.

Use good quality Italian pasta, you will notice the difference!

Use cayenne or chili powder if you like a spicy touch - delicious!

 Be generous with the cheese and lemon, don't worry about adding too much, this is a dish with flavour!

 Don't throw away the water you used to cook the pasta. We'll use it to give the sauce creaminess and flavour! Essential!

Ingredients

300-400g fettuccine
4 chicken fillets
1 whole head of garlic
olive oil
shawl
pepper to taste
2 tablespoons of butter
a good handful of chopped parsley leaves
juice of 1 lemon
zest of 1 lemon
4 tablespoons of cream for cooking
freshly grated parmesan
pasta cooking water
2 cayenne peppers (optional if you like it spicy)

Preparation

garlic and lemon sauce

We take a head of garlic and cut off the top, so that all the garlic can be seen. We put them in a silver paper, we pour a jet of oil, salt and pepper. We wrap and cook in the oven 40 minutes at 180º. When they take 25 minutes, we open them and finish baking uncovered so that they toast well.

Remove and let cool a bit so as not to burn.
In a large pot we squeeze the head of garlic so that all the garlic comes out and we use a fork or a knife to remove all the content. Add the butter and a splash of oil. Cook over medium heat for 3 minutes and while we add the juice and zest of 1 lemon (reserve a bit of both juice and zest for serving), the cream, pepper and salt. We booked.
Breaded chicken

While we have the garlic in the oven, we breaded some chicken fillets and fried them. We reserve hot.
Pasta

Cook the pasta in plenty of salted water for the time indicated on the package so that it is “al dente”. It is important that you cook it al dente so that later with the subsequent cooking it does not pass.

We pour the pasta directly from the pot where we have cooked them on the sauce, grate a lot of Parmesan cheese on top and add 2 tablespoons of the cooking water. Remove and see how it becomes more and more creamy.
Add chopped parsley, stir well. Add the chopped chicken, add more lemon, more lemon zest, more freshly grated cheese, chopped parsley, salt and pepper to taste. A splash of olive oil and enjoy!
