Pollo al Tequila con Fettucini (Tequila Chicken with Fettucini)

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
• 2 tablespoons finely minced garlic
• 2 tablespoons seeded, finely chopped jalapeqo
• 1/2 cup chicken stock
• 2 tablespoons tequila
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1/4 white onion, peeled and thinly sliced
• 1 cup thinly sliced bell pepper
• 1 1/4 lb. skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 1 1/2" cubes
• 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
• 1 lb. fettucine, cooked according to package directions

Directions

In a medium skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and sautee the cilantro, garlic and jalapeqo 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent the garlic from scorching.

Add the stock, tequila, and lime juice, and cook until the mixture is reduced by half.

Set aside.

In another skillet, melt the remaining butter, saute the onion and bell pepper until wilted, add the chicken and cook, stirring, just until no longer pink.

Add the tequila mixture and cream and toss with the hot pasta.
