Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Chicken Ranch Dijon Pasta.
Step 1
Start by bringing a pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil, setting the stage for perfectly cooked angel hair pasta.
Step 2
Once the water is bubbling away, lower the heat to medium-low to keep it at a gentle simmer.
Step 3
While the water is heating up, season your chicken breasts generously with salt and black pepper on both sides, ensuring they’re full of flavor.
Step 4
In a skillet, melt some butter over medium heat, letting it sizzle and fill your kitchen with a delicious aroma.
Step 5
Carefully add the seasoned chicken breasts to the skillet and cook them for about 8 minutes on each side, or until they’re beautifully browned and no longer pink in the center.
Step 6
Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a platter, cover it loosely with aluminum foil, and keep it warm while you prepare the sauce.
Step 7
In a mixing bowl, whisk together ranch dressing and Dijon mustard until well combined.
Step 8
Pour white wine into the skillet, scraping the bottom to lift any tasty browned bits left behind, and then stir in your ranch dressing mixture.
Step 9
Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Step 10
Meanwhile, return to your pot of simmering water and add the angel hair pasta.
Step 11
Cook it for about 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until it reaches that perfect al dente texture.
Step 12
Once done, drain the pasta and toss it gently with the creamy ranch sauce, ensuring every strand is coated in that rich flavor.
Step 13
To serve, divide the pasta among four plates, placing a succulent chicken breast on top of each serving.
Step 14
Drizzle any remaining sauce over the chicken and finish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
Step 15
Enjoy this delightful dish that’s sure to impress family and friends alike!.
