Ingredients
  

Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breasts or thighs
  • 8 oz tagliatelle pasta
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 0.5 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 tsp truffle oil
  • 0.25 cup chopped fresh herbs (thyme, parsley, basil)
  • 1 cup leeks, thinly sliced
  • 0.33 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Season chicken with salt, pepper, and herbs. Sear in olive oil and butter until golden and cooked through. Set aside.
  • In the same pan, cook sliced leeks until soft. Sprinkle Parmesan over and allow to crisp. Remove and set aside.
  • Lower heat, add garlic, then heavy cream. Stir in feta and truffle oil. Simmer gently and season.
  • Boil tagliatelle until al dente. Drain, reserving a bit of pasta water.
  • Mix pasta into the sauce, using reserved water to adjust texture. Top with sliced chicken, crispy leeks, and extra herbs.

Notes

For extra richness, add a pat of butter when combining the pasta with the sauce. Make sure the feta is well crumbled to ensure even melting and smooth texture.
