T.G.I. Friday's Spicy Cajun Chicken Pasta Recipe

Melt half the butter in a large skillet over medium/high heat. Saute the bell peppers, onions, and garlic in the butter for 8 to 10 minutes or until the vegetables begin to soften slightly.

As the vegetables are cooking, cut the chicken breasts into bite-size pieces.

Prepare a medium-size pan over high heat with the remaining olive oil. When the pan is hot, add the chicken and cook, stirring, for 5 to 7 minutes or until the chicken shows no pink.

When the vegetables are soft (about 10 minutes) add the chicken to the pan.

Add the tomatoes, mushrooms, chicken stock, salt, cayenne pepper, paprika, white pepper, and thyme and continue to simmer for 10 to 12 minutes until it thickens.

In the meantime bring the water to a boil in a large pot. If you like, add salt to the water. Cook the fettuccine in the boiling water until done. This will take 10 to 12 minutes.

When the noodles are done, drain them and add the remaining butter. The butter should melt quickly on the hot noodles. Toss the noodles to mix in the butter.

Serve the dish by dividing the noodles onto individual plates. Divide the chicken and vegetable sauce evenly and spread it over the top of the noodles on each plate. Divide the parsley and sprinkle it over each serving.
