Lemon Garlic Butter Chicken Bites with Savory Parmesan Linguine

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Cook the Chicken:

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. 🫒

Add the chicken pieces, season with salt and pepper, and cook for about 5-7 minutes until golden and cooked through. 🍗

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pan and set aside.

In the same skillet, melt butter and add the minced garlic. Cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant. 🧄

Add lemon juice and zest, stirring to combine. 🍋

Return the chicken to the skillet, toss to coat in the lemon garlic butter, and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. 🌿

2. Prepare the Parmesan Linguine:

Cook linguine pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain, reserving some pasta water. 🍝

In the same pan, melt butter over medium heat. Add heavy cream, and bring it to a simmer. 🧴

Stir in the parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and season with salt and pepper. Stir until the sauce is smooth and creamy. 🧀

Add the cooked linguine to the pan and toss to coat in the creamy sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a little pasta water to loosen it up. 🌿

3. Serve:

Plate the creamy parmesan linguine and top with the lemon garlic butter chicken bites. 🍽

Garnish with extra parmesan cheese and fresh parsley. Enjoy this satisfying meal! 😋
