What Kind of Chicken Works Best?

Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are both great options here, depending on your preference. Thighs are more tender and juicy, while breasts offer a leaner bite.

How To Make the Greek Chili Chicken Alfredo with Smoked Feta Cream & Crispy Parmesan Asparagus

Step 1: Marinate and Cook the Chicken

Season chicken breasts with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, Greek chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes. Grill or sear the chicken over medium-high heat until fully cooked, then set aside to rest before slicing.

Step 2: Roast the Asparagus

Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss asparagus with olive oil, salt, pepper, and grated Parmesan. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 12-15 minutes until crispy and golden.

Step 3: Prepare the Smoked Feta Alfredo Sauce

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and add minced garlic. Stir in heavy cream and let it simmer gently. Crumble in smoked feta and whisk until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 4: Cook the Pasta

Boil fettuccine in salted water according to package instructions. Drain and add directly to the Alfredo sauce, tossing to coat evenly.

Step 5: Combine and Serve

Plate the creamy fettuccine, top with sliced grilled chicken, and add a serving of crispy Parmesan asparagus on the side. Garnish with extra feta or fresh parsley if desired.
