Chicken Milano is a simple yet elegant dish.  The sweet aroma of basil will fill your kitchen and will have your family come running to find out what’s for dinner.”

 

DIRECTIONS

1. Heat olive oil in a hot skillet on medium heat.  Wash the chicken breasts.  If they are thick cuts then cut them in half so they are no more than ½” thick.  Salt and pepper one side of the chicken and add it to the skillet salt and pepper side down.   Cook until brown.  Salt and pepper the side that is up, flip over the chicken and cook until done.   Do not over cook, to avoid from being too dry.  Transfer the chicken onto a baking dish.
2. Prepare fettuccine as directed by the package instructions.  Once cooked, drain the noodles and toss them with olive oil-to avoid sticking.
3. In a large sauce pan melt the butter on medium.  Whisk in cream, nutmeg, Parmesan, salt, and pepper to taste.  Turn off heat and stir cooked fettuccine into the sauce.
4. Heat oven on broil.  On each breast add a slice of ham, a basil leaf on top of the ham, and lastly add a slice of provolone on top of the basil.  Cook the chicken in the oven on broil for a couple of minutes until the cheese has melted completely.
5. Pour fettuccine alfredo into a large serving bowl and add chicken on top.  Garish with basil leaves.
