Directions:Step 1.
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
Step 2
Heat 1 Tablespoon olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add chicken tenders. Cook, turning occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink at the center and juices run clear, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the center should read 165ºF. Remove from skillet.
Step. 3.
Add 1 tablespoons olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter to the cast iron. Add fresh garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Step. 4
Add broth, bring to a simmer. Cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes.
Step. 5.
Stir pasta and chicken into the skillet; combine well. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil if needed. Stir in parsley. |
