this is a good pasta dish. we’ve used this method to clear out the fridge. can i suggest maybe a different name? it doesn’t really say what the pasta is like and it’s hard to share with friends, “yeah, just search best chicken pasta ever”. up 8,000 recipes.

I love it! It makes a ton if you use a whole pound of pasta. Thanks!

Made this last night. It was “eh.” I used a whole bag of fresh spinach, lots of garlic, tomatoes, fresh basil…The only thing I left out were the mushrooms. It just didn’t have a lot of flavor, if you can believe it. I made a similar recipe a couple of weeks ago with shrimp and it was much better.
Of course, having said all this, I did bring the leftovers for lunch today and my stomach is growling, ready to dive into it!

1 lb peeled, deveined shrimp

½ cup shallots, chopped (I only did 1/3 cup)

3 tbs olive oil

¾ cup chicken broth

Juice of one lemon (not nearly enough for me)

1 tsp. salt (and I thought it needed more once in my bowl)

1 package of the lemon chive al dente fettuccine

10 oz fresh spinach, washed and drained, coarsely chopped (I thought 10 oz would be too much, since the package I had was 5 oz. Nope, could have used 10 ozs.)

Cook fettuccine. While water is preparing to boil, put olive oil in pan, add shallots. Sauté 30 seconds. Add shrimp – cook for 3 minutes. Add chicken broth, lemon, salt. Bring just to boil. Add cooked fettuccine (should be done, since you only cooked it for about 3 minutes), toss. Add spinach and toss, just until wilted. Serve.

You can add things like toasted pine nuts, roasted red peppers, chopped tomatoes.

I added petite diced tomatoes, drained. Ooh, I just thought of artichoke hearts – those would be good….. You could also add mushrooms, parmesan or feta, whatever! Garlic. Mmmm.

I made this recipe a couple weeks ago and fell in love with it. I even made it for guests last week and they all raved about it. I even got a couple requests for the recipe!

I especially love the way the chicken broth helps flavor the whole dish. Crazy yummy.
