🍽️ Quick and Easy Creamy Lemon Chicken Pasta Recipe
My wife made this recipe a few weeks ago and we loved it!! She now is sharing this easy recipe with all of you! The recipe is from Melissa Erdelac at mamagourmand.com. You need to check this out.
Creamy lemon chicken pasta brings together a delightful citrusy garlic cream sauce, tender pasta, and flavorful lemon chicken cutlets. This dish promises a restaurant-quality experience at home, ready in under 20 minutes.
A Perfect Weeknight Delight
This creamy lemon chicken pasta is a quick and comforting meal, ideal for busy weeknights or casual entertaining. Similar to chicken and broccoli pasta bake or chicken tetrazzini casserole, the combination of chicken and pasta in a rich, creamy sauce is always a crowd-pleaser.
The lemon cream sauce and seasoned chicken cutlets come together so quickly that you'll need to start boiling the pasta first. To ensure everything is hot and ready to serve simultaneously, have all your ingredients prepped and measured beforehand.
Similar to gluten-free Alfredo sauce, this creamy lemon sauce doesn’t contain a roux, making it naturally gluten-free. Simply use your preferred gluten-free pasta for a completely gluten-free lemon chicken pasta meal.
