Instructions

Get the Grill Ready

Start by firing up the Arteflame grill to get it ready for grilling.

Prepare the Chicken

1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
2. Place the chicken on the center grill grate and sear each side for 3-4 minutes to get a golden crust.
3. Move the chicken to the outer flat cooktop and cook for an additional 8-10 minutes, until cooked through.
4. Let the chicken rest, then slice it thinly.

Cook the Pasta

1. Cook the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. To give the pasta a "crunch", grill the cooked pasta on the flat griddle cooktop.

Prepare the Alfredo Sauce

1. In a grill-safe pan, melt the butter on the flat cooktop.
2. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer.
4. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
5. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Combine and Serve

1. Toss the cooked fettuccine with the Alfredo sauce until well coated.
2. Add the grilled chicken slices on top and garnish with fresh parsley.
3. Serve immediately.

Tips

• Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches your desired level of doneness.
• Rotate the chicken on the flat cooktop to utilize different heat zones for even cooking.
• Let the chicken rest after grilling to retain its juices.
