Updated at: Thu, 21 Nov 2024 11:50:56 GMT

Step 1

Begin by boiling the water for the pasta in a large saucepan. As the water comes to a boil, prep all the ingredients, such as chicken cutlets, garlic, lemon juice, zest, and parmesan cheese.

Step 2

Mix together the chicken seasoning - ½ tsp salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and ⅛ tsp pepper. Sprinkle on both sides of the chicken cutlets.

Step 3

Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to package directions for al dente. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes, or until hot.

Step 4

The chicken will cook as the lemon cream sauce is prepared. For the chicken, add the olive oil to the skillet. Once hot, cook the chicken undisturbed for 3-4 minutes on one side, or until golden brown. Flip and cook for 3 more minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from heat and squeeze a lemon wedge over the chicken.

Step 5

As the chicken cooks, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the heavy cream, ½ tsp salt, and ¼ tsp pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce to a simmer and stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice. Simmer gently until the pasta and chicken are done.

Step 6

Remove the lemon cream sauce from the heat and stir in parmesan cheese until smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Drain the pasta and combine with the lemon sauce. Serve immediately with the lemon chicken.
