This is what I made with the first batch of homemade fettuccine (see recipe here: https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/13556458-homemade-basil-fettuccine), but any kind of pasta will work wonderfully!

Steps

1

Bring a large pot of salted water to boil, cook pasta until al dente, drain and reserve. Save 1 cup of the cooking water.
2

In a large wok, heat olive oil and sautée chicken until cooked and beginning to brown, about 5-8 minutes. Reserve.
3

In the same wok, melt the butter and fry the onion and garlic in it until the butter begins to bubble and brown.
4

Add the cooked pasta and the chicken, together with the reserved pasta water, and mix energically to combine. The water and the butter will form a nice, silky sauce. Add the Parmesan cheese and keep mixing until the cheese blends in and melts. De-lish!
5

Serve with additional Parmesan and a pinch or two of dried basil. Voilá!
