Instructions
Marinate & Grill the Chicken
In a bowl, toss chicken pieces with olive oil, lemon juice, chopped dill, minced garlic, dried oregano, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper.
Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Grill chicken bites for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and lightly charred. Set aside.
Prepare the Potatoes
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a bowl, toss potato cubes with olive oil, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
Spread potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through.
Cook the Pasta
Cook fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente.
Reserve ½ cup pasta water, then drain.
Make the Creamy Garlic Alfredo Sauce
While the chicken grills and potatoes roast, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Sauté garlic until fragrant.
Pour in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
Stir in grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
Add chopped dill and season with salt and pepper.
Add cooked fettuccine to the sauce, tossing gently. Add reserved pasta water if needed to reach desired consistency.
Prepare the Creamy Hot Honey Whipped Feta Pesto Drizzle
In a small bowl, combine crumbled feta cheese, Greek yogurt, basil pesto, hot honey (or honey and red pepper flakes), and lemon juice.
Whisk vigorously until smooth and creamy. You can also use a small food processor or immersion blender for an extra smooth texture.
Assemble & Serve
Serve the creamy garlic Alfredo pasta topped with the grilled spicy Greek chicken bites and Parmesan-roasted crispy potatoes on the side.
Drizzle generously with the creamy hot honey whipped feta pesto sauce.
