Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Lemon Chicken Linguine.
Step 1
Start by melting a delightful combination of butter and olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the butter is bubbling, toss in the chopped onion and minced garlic.
Step 3
Sauté them gently until they become soft and fragrant, which should take about five minutes—just enough time to let those wonderful aromas fill your kitchen.
Step 4
Next, pour in the milk and add the chicken bouillon cubes, along with a sprinkle of oregano, salt, and pepper.
Step 5
Bring this mixture to a lively boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer for five minutes, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
Step 6
While that simmers, grab a small bowl and whisk together some cold water and cornstarch until it’s nice and smooth.
Step 7
Stir this mixture into your sauce, along with the seasoned grilled chicken, and cook everything together until it’s heated through and the sauce thickens, which should take another five minutes.
Step 8
Meanwhile, in a large pot, bring lightly salted water to a boil and add the linguine.
Step 9
Cook it until it’s al dente, which usually takes about eleven minutes, then drain the pasta and set it aside.
Step 10
Now, return to your sauce and reduce the heat to low.
Step 11
Stir in the bright lemon juice, fresh chopped parsley, and zesty lemon zest, warming it for just one to two minutes to keep that fresh flavor intact.
Step 12
Finally, add the drained linguine to the sauce, tossing it gently to ensure every strand is coated in that creamy goodness.
Step 13
Transfer your delicious creation to a serving bowl and finish it off with a generous sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
Step 14
Enjoy this comforting dish that’s sure to impress your family and friends!.
