Ingredients
- 1/8 cup unsalted butter
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 3/4 cup of dry white wine
- 2 cups of heavy cream
- 2.5 cups of finely grated Pecorino Romano cheese
- 1/2 cup of finely grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 teaspoons tapioca flour (you can easily substitute the thickening agent of your choice)
- 3 grilled boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced on the bias
- 1 large onion, halved and sliced
- water
- 16 ounces of fettucini
- optional: lemon wedges

Instructions:
- Heat a well seasoned cast iron or nonstick skillet on medium-high to high. When hot add the sliced onions and about a 1/4 cup of water. Cook and stir until all the water is evaporated and then add 1/4 cup more of water. Continue the process until the onions are caramelized (about 10 min). When done, remove from heat, season it with salt and pepper then set aside.
- Bring a large pot of water to boil and add the fettuccine cooking as directed.
- In a separate pot, melt the butter on medium high heat. Add the garlic and saute until it begins to brown slightly.
- Add the wine and cream and bring to a slow boil. Simmer until the sauce reduces slightly (about 5-8 minutes).
- Whisk in the Pecorino Romano and Parmesan cheese and stir until it is melted and well incorporated.
- Because my husband likes a thicker sauce, we dissolve a couple of teaspoons of tapioca flour in a little wine and slowly add it to the sauce until we reach the consistency he likes. You can easily substitute your preferred thickening agent or simmer and reduce the sauce on the stove top to achieve the same result.
- Serve the sauce over the fettuccine topped with grilled chicken and caramelized onions.
* Recommendation: I like to squeeze a wedge of lemon over my plate of Chicken Alfredo. It brightens up and enhances the flavors. 🙂
