Creamy Lemon Garlic Pasta with Chicken
Cooking meals for my husband (and the rest of my family!) has always been how I show love for them. Our entire family loves San Giorgio® Fettucine Creamy Lemon Garlic Pasta with Chicken that I’ve been making for years. When I have this meal on the dinner table, my family knows it’s extra special!
A comforting pasta dinner seems to cure all in our home! I’ve been eating San Giorgio Pasta since I was a young girl and now I feed it to my entire family. My family loves San Giorgio Pasta paired with my extra-special creamy lemon garlic sauce recipe that’s been in my family for generations.
There’s just something about a big dish of comforting pasta and your loved ones around a table. Pair this warm, creamy fettuccine dish with a nice glass of wine and crusty bread…heaven!

How to Make Creamy Lemon Garlic Pasta with Chicken
Step 1: Prepare the Chicken
To three separate bowls add egg, parmesan and panko bread crumbs. Dip each chicken breast into the egg first, then the parmesan, and finally the bread crumb. Set aside.
Step 2: Cook the Chicken
Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Add in the olive oil.
Once the olive oil is hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the outside is crispy and the chicken is cooked through.
Remove to a plate while preparing the pasta.
Step 3: Cook the Pasta
Cook the pasta according to the package directions and drain.
Step 4: Make the Cream Sauce
Add butter to the skillet over medium-low heat. Once melted, add the garlic and stir around for about a minute.
Add in the heavy cream, lemon, white wine, and remaining seasonings. Stir well.
Step 5: Combine
Add the cooked and drained pasta to the cream sauce and mix well.
Step 6: Enjoy!
Add the pasta to a plate and top with sliced chicken breasts.
Garnish with fresh parsley and parmesan cheese.
Serve immediately.
Tips for Making Creamy Lemon Garlic Pasta with Chicken
- Do not overcook the chicken – keep an eye on the chicken as it cooks. Flip once the bottom side is golden brown. Use a meat thermometer and cook until it reaches 160 degrees.
- Cook the pasta until al dente – for best results cook the pasta until the al dente stage.
- Use a wine you like – be sure to choose a white wine that you actually like drinking as the taste will come through the pasta. You can substitute chicken broth if you’d rather.
- San Giorgio Pasta – can be found in the pasta aisle at Giant Eagle (shop it here!). It’s
perfect!
